Geocache Description:

this cache will force you to explore some of the features of your GPSr that you may never have known existed!

This cache was placed by a member of the:

Geocachers of Northeastern Illinois. Visit us @ www.gonil.org.

(if you're caching via the el, take the purple line to the dempster stop, go three blocks west on dempster and one south on oak.) WARNING- THE HINTS ARE A SPOILER!! there are 5 total waypoints to this multicache. read this entire cache page before you start, or there's a good bit of extra walking that you'll do. keep your eyes open for clues, it'll help in the end :)

the first waypoint is at the above coordinates. search for a clue that will take you to waypoint 2.

waypoint 2: count and follow us. remember our number. we're linked together so as to stop the back. ask the last of us how to search for a clue (waypoint 3) that will lead you to waypoint 4.

using the clue found at waypoint 3 and this information, (it's a waypoint projection) find your way to waypoint 4. [Thank you to lazylightning.org for this information!!]

Waypoint four will be the 7th and final of these items. If your distance is off, don’t worry.

From waypoint four, use some of the information you've collected in your adventure thus far to derive the final location of the cache.

If the waypoint projections are giving you trouble, check the 'north' setting on your GPS and try setting it to True instead of Magnetic.

Bearing = ABC where: SWINGSETS=A BENCHES=B (Count From WPs 2 to 3)/3=C

Distance: .IHmi where: Alcohol Ordinance: GH-I-JK
