Geocache Description:

This is a multi-stage scavenger hunt for the coordinates to the final cache.

THIS IS AN "OFFSET" GEOCACHE.


Go to each lettered coordinate to find the number it corresponds with. After all the letters are replaced with numbers, head to the finale!

FINALE: N43° AB.CDE, W083° FG.HIJ

A: N43° 29.614, W083° 24.392 - First digit of second year found here.

B: N43° 30.415, W083° 22.444 - Third digit of date found here. NOT THE MOVING WALL MEMORIAL!

C & G: N43° 29.449, W083° 23.597 - Last digit of date found here (Coast Guard).

D, E, & J: N43° 28.982, W083° 23.838 - At this sign, find a number that is NOT in any form of a date! Subtract 922 from that number.

F & I: N43° 29.564, W083° 23.531 - NOT the date here, but the other number! Use the second digit for "F", and the third digit for "I". STAGE MAY NOT BE ACCESSIBLE IN WINTER.

H: Add "I" and "J" together.

This cache is in a place I frequented many times growing up. Living just down the road a bit, I'd ride my bike here to fish. All the land around here was farm land owned by my great grandfather whom I'm named after.

Bring small fishing related items if you want to. ABSOLUTELY NO EXPOSED HOOKS!

Be very careful of uneven surfaces while accessing this cache! You might just need a nimble person to help you. Keep fishing items in their original packages if possible. The cache is only a peanut butter jar, so the smaller the better! Be wary of fishin' muggles at this location. In the spring, or during high water, the cache may not be accessible. DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES ATTEMPT TO ACCESS DURING HIGH WATER!!! Bring your fishin' pole if you like, although I don't think you'll have much luck. Bug spray is a must in the summertime. Enjoy!
