This is a multi cache with two virtual stages and a traditional final.

At the posted coordinates you will find a couple of bears, make a note of the five digit number nearby (the sum of the five digits is 14)You will need this number to calculate the North coordinates of the Final.

Stage #2
Coordinates for stage #2 are N43 36.831 W079 55.560
At these coordinates you will find a bear, make a note of the five digit house number(the sum of the digits is 19). You will need this number to calculate the West coordinates of the final.

Stage #3 - the Final
Coordinates for Final:
