Geocache Description:


...Copying Killer Rabbit copying Moe...copying [Geocacher who invented the GADE method]

I wanted to be one of the cool kids, cause all the cool kids, they seem to fit in. Here's another one of them winter-friendly Q2SM (Quick 2 Step Multis) using the Gade method.

At the posted coordinates you will find a sign with a five digit number in the lower left corner. To get the coordinates for the final cache location you will use the Gade method to process that number. Here's how it works...

1) Take that five digit number and rearrange the digits in order from lowest to highest. For example, if the number was "30508" (it's not) you would then rearrange the digits to "00358".

2) Next, create a second string of digits containing all of the numbers between 0 and 9 not used in the first string, arranged lowest to highest. In our example, the second string would be "124679".

3) Add the second string of digits to the end of the first string. For our example, you would get  "00358124679".

4) Assign each of the resulting digits to a letter of the alphabet, beginning with A. For our example: A=0, B=0, C=3, D=5... K=9.

Using this method on the real number at the posted coordinates, you will find the final cache at N45° BA.EGI  W93° BD.DFJ

You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.
