Geocache Description:

The cache is NOT at the above listed coordinates. A little simple research is required to get the actual coords. The cache is a black advantix film cannister, and it is hidden within Missoula city limits.

With everything on fire this past summer, I thought I'd hide a cache that required searchers to track down a little fire trivia. Fill in the missing letters in the trivia questions below and plug them into this formula:

46 deg 5C.BAD min
113deg 5D.AEA min

1) The first fire extinguisher was given patent # 3A,61B in 186C to Alasson Crane.

2) The great Kanto earthquake of 1D23 started the worst fires in the history of Edo.

3) The Great Fire of Brisbane was in 186E.
