Hopewell Meadows Multi-Cache

This cache has been archived.

tomturtle: This one has had a good run, but it has needed alot of maintenance over the years, so I have decided to let this one go. Stage 2 was missing and I picked up stage 3 as I walked the multi path with fluttercat this afternoon. DBlankenship and The Monkeez may claim this one as a find if they wish since I am not replacing it. Thanks to everyone who found this cache!

Geocache Description:

This is a 3 part multi cache. Paperless cachers may wish to use paper on this one, due to the decryption key. All stages are easily reachable from ground level for most people and are located within the same park.

This is a 3 part multi cache. For Stage 1, you will need to find a rock with a plaque on it that lists some people who helped establish the park you are in. It is not far from the center flagpole.

Use the following key to decrypt the clue:

A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
5 4 9 8 7 4 3 5 8 7 6 2 1 6 1 4 5 6 0 8 6 2 3 1 9 0

Find the person whose name is James on the plaque. Fill in the blanks below with the first 5 letters of his last name and decrypt to find the first part of the coordinates for the 2nd stage:

N39 __ __ . __ __ __ then subtract .010

Find the persone whose name is Eric on the plaque. Fill in the blanks below with the first 5 letters of his last name and decrypt to find the second part of the coordinates for the 2nd stage:

W084 __ __ . __ __ __ then add .007

Stage 2 will give you the coordinates for the final stage. It is a small cache with only a little bit of room for small trade items. Please rehide stages 2 and 3 well and be aware that at times there are lots of muggles in the area.
