Geocache Description:

The Cache coordinates provided above will lead you to a free parking lot in downtown Springfield. From here you can set out on a three quarter mile hike in the rapidly redeveloping downtown area to see many of the sponsored murals painted on the buildings in the area. This cache uses 5 of them to give you clues to the final cache location coordinates. The parking area is at one of the murals, and very close to your final destination.

Record your answers to the following questions about each mural in the spaces provided. This will give you the coordinates for the final cache which is 1.5 inches in diameter by 1 inch tall. Bring a pen or pencil to write your screen name/date on the log. The cache is in sight, in downtown Springfield, so use caution to keep non-cachers from finding it.

I have included coordinates to get you close to each of the required murals, but it would be easier to use the attached map. I have also indicated other murals in the area with numbers so that you can check them all out.

Check your numbers:

A+B+C+D+E= __ __ take this 2 digit number and add the digits. It should equal 5.
