Geocache Description:


Say hi to Leif Erikson, a towering figure at Shilshole Marina!   According to plaque on the statue, the first recorded European to set foot on North American shores.  To get the final coords, a waypoint projection tool would be helpful.  The final is at a public location and may be accessible at all hours, but please limit your search to daylight hours or you might get paddled.

Per the plaque, the year he landed in North America was around XXXX.  Subract 711 = ABC

The statue was given to the Port of Seattle in 19X2.  X times 8 = DE

Replicas of the statue have been given to three locations, including Brattahlid, Greenland in 200X.  X = F

The final can be found at ABC degrees north at a distance of DEF feet from the posted coordinates.
