While bike riding and eventually walking along the Montour/Panhandle Trail Connector, I noticed this group of historical signs, highlighting different areas of the Montour Trail that was used by the railroad company when it owned this track of land. The signs show what life was like years ago along the Montour Trail. This sign that you will be looking at and using to figure out where the final cache highlights the McDonald Mine. To figure out where the final is, you will need to solve the field puzzle below. Once you have figured out the puzzle, head on down the trail to search out the final. The container is hidden about 10 or so feet off the trail. You will need to provide yourself with a pen to sign the log.
The final coordinates will be found at N 40 21.ABC W 080 15.DEF
A - 93x feet
B - Last digit in the number of sections of deck plate girders
C - The number of letters in the Avenue listed in the first paragrah
D - Add the last digit for the 2 years listed in the first paragraph
E - Which war was this bridge designated as a vital structure
4 - Vietnam War
5 - World War I
6 - World War II
7 - Korean War
F - How many things (roads, bodies of water, etc.) did this span go over that are listed in the first paragraph
To make sure that you solved this correctly, the sum of the above numbers should equal 29.
This cache has been placed along the Panhandle Trail. The Panhandle Trail stretches from Collier Township in Pennsyvlania west to Collier Township in West Virginia. The Panhandle Trail is a multi-purpose trail that allows runners, walkers, and cyclist to use the trail. The Panhandle Trail is available from sunrise to sunset, so please no night caching for this cache or any other of my caches along the trail. The cache that you will be seeking out for this cache is a preform container.
