A Tale Of Two Parks Multi-Cache

This cache has been archived.

RGS: Well, I guess it's time for this one to go. WP1 has failed me again. And since we moved last year, most of my garage toys didn't make it. For now I can't think of an easy way to replace it without making several "trial and error" trips which may not even work.

Thanks to everyone that worked on this cache and to the park ranger who gave out small hints.

I've got all the parts here and maybe I can come up with something over the winter which will make it more reliable.

How Geocaching Works

Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Geocache Description:

The first waypoint and the final are in two different parks, but close enough to walk if you want a little exercise.


WP1:
WP1 is on an object that belongs here, but has been modified slightly as to have the N & W decimal coordinates written on it with a red paint stick.
I have uploaded an image (spoiler?) which will help you narrow down your search area for WP1.
Ignore ALL stamped or cast numbers!

You are looking for N .XXX and W .YYY where X and Y are the 3 digit decimal numbers and should replace the decimal numbers of the coordinates above. This waypoint has a rating of 4/1, so it's an easy flat walk and no force, bending, or anything additional is needed to retrieve the numbers.
Please replace everything as you found it. Checksum of the individual six digits is 20.

Originally, the object at WP1 was going to be used in my ST series, but until now I could never find the appropriate and safe place to hide it.

FINAL:
The final is now a medium size perscription bottle containg a log book and pencil.
This cache is located in a different park than the 1st WP and has a rating of 2/1.5, maybe 2/2. It is slightly off a cut grass area and should be easily accessible in shorts and tennis shoes. Ticks and bugs shouldn't be a problem here.
