Geocache Description:

This is a multiple cache involving some mental gymnastics.
You also get to visit two (2) nice parks in this area!

Dec-20,2003 Final cache location slightly revised.
July-12,2004 WP4 relocated and coordinates updated.
Sept-04,2004 WP3 replaced.
Oct-08,2004 WP1 replaced.

Your objective is to determine a 5-digit number (call this ABCDE) from clues given at each of the waypoints below. The clues are all micro-caches. You don’t have to look for these in any specific order, but you will need to find all 4 micro-caches to definitively solve for the 5-digit number.

WP1 = N38.34.799 W090.33.598
WP2 = N38.34.736 W090.33.586
WP3 = N38.34.813 W090.33.555
WP4 = N38.34.755 W090.33.510

Once you have determined the 5-digit number, put it in the form of AB.CDE (as in minutes/seconds) and subtract this from the North set of coordinates below to give you the coordinates for the final cache, which is in another nice and nearby park in Ballwin.

The coordinates for the final cache, WP5, are:
N38.49.185 - AB.CDE = N38.xx.xxx = North coordinates for the final cache
W090.33.227

WP’s and final cache are all accessible from 7am till dusk. Kids playground and wash room facilities are available. The final cache is in a clear container approx. 8x4x6 inches in size and has various goodies and things. Please re-hide all cache containers. Have fun!
