This is a multi cache. You need to use information on the sign near the posted coordinates to find the location of the cache.

You need to solve for A, B, and C in the following to get the final coordinates:

The sign has 11 colored circles about plants and creatures that live in this habitat.

 

 

Find the phrase "It All Starts on the ______" A = the number of letters in the missing word.

B = The number of circles about creatures. Note that plants with creatures in their name, such as "Skunk Cabbage," don't count as creatures.

C = The number of things pictured in the circles on the sign that have a color in the name.
