Geocache Description:

This is a multi-cache which can be enjoyed by the whole family (including children). Approximate time for completion is less than 2 hours. (I suggest a half-day to a full day to truly enjoy the many beautiful historical spots in the area) Bring a lunch along as there are plenty of picnic tables or enjoy one of the many fine restaurants along the way.

N 46° 48.013 W 71° 13.400 These are the coordinates for the paid parking area and this is where your journey begins.There is also some meter parking in the area, but free parking is difficult to find.

For the coordinates of the cache you’ll have to find 6 clues and some basic maths calculations.

Clue no 1: Location N 46° 48.238 W 71° 13.060 She was born in year _ _ _ _ (4 digits)

Clue no 2: Location N 46° 48.320 W 71° 13.070 The name of this legendary figure contains how many letters _ (1 digit)
