Geocache Description:

The Paris Ring is a serie of geocaches surrounding the French capital all originally created and hidden by IntotheWoods.
Le Paris Ring est une série de geocaches qui entoure la capitale française qui ont toutes été créées originellement par IntotheWoods.


Domaine de Grosbois

English Version

This multicache can be found in the Domaine de Grosbois, situated in the town of Boissy-St. Leger. Easily accessible by car or RER train from Paris. If coming by train, take the RER A east to the end of the line at Boissy-St. Leger. From there it's about a 15-minute walk up Rue de Paris to the forest.

This is a 5-part cache; to complete it you must visit 4 waypoints to gather coordinates for the final cache (A-J. Waypoints can be done in any order; the way I have laid them out is the most logical, however.)

N 48° AB.CDE E002° FG.HIJ

1st Waypoint

N 48° 44.825
E002° 30.924

You will find a posted map of the forest at this location. In what year was the map placed? year=HJxG

2nd Waypoint

N 48° 44.516
E002° 31.341

You will find a single-digit number painted on a tree at this spot. number=F, F+1=A
Since people are having trouble locating this tree, I'm going to help you out. F=3!

3rd Waypoint

N 48° 44.628
E002° 31.456

Another single digit number, this one is painted on the trail itself. number-3=E

4th Waypoint

N 48° 44.755
E002° 31.456

Here you'll leave the main trails to find a tree marked with a two-digit number. The tree will be visible on the other side of the fence from your location. number+58=CD

You were wondering about B and I? B=A and I=G...go find the cache!
