Geocache Description:


THE CACHE IS NOT AT THE POSTED COORDINATES!

 

To find this geocache, you’ll need to solve a puzzle. The park is open from 9 AM to 8 PM. If you attempt to enter the park outside of these hours, you could face serious consequences. Permission has been granted to place this cache.

 

I’m so excited to introduce this new geocache to the St. Louis community! I’ve had so much fun placing all these caches recently, and I hope you enjoy this one. 

To find the final coordinates, solve for N 38° 40.ABC W 90° 23.DEF by answering the following questions with this article Stacy Park - Wikipedia

1. A = The second digit of the number of acres Stacy Park covers minus 3

2. B = The last digit of the year St. Louis decided to build the reservoir minus 4

3. C = The number of feet Stacy Park Reservoir is above sea level, minus 697.

4. D = The third digit of the year the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts raised money for the flagpole.

5. E =  The number of letters in the name of the pond that once occupied the area where Stacy Park is now located.

6. F = The number of miles in the walking path around the park, multiplied by 2.5
 

Good luck with this cache, and happy caching!
