Geocache Description:

In Danby State Forest on the orange-blazed trail, but not at above coordinates


Create your own cache coordinates to get to this cache!

Remember the Veg-O-Matic from late night TV infomercials?
              
Well in a similar vein, this cache will let you prepare your
own set of coordinates in a flash. Just process the ingredients below
and you'll soon be on your way.

Latitude:
Pick a single digit from this number (notice, no 8)

                    12345679

MULTIPLY it by 9,  then MULTIPLY this product by the above number.
Now DIVIDE the final product by the original number you picked.
ADD the 1st 3 digits of the result to the decimal part of the above latitude.

Longitude:
Pick any 3 digit number with all different, non-zero digits.
Reverse the order and SUBTRACT the smaller from the larger.
Reverse your answer and ADD it to the original answer.
SUBRTACT the last 3 digits of the result from the decimal part of the above longitude.

You've now Cache-O-Matic'd your own set of personal coordinates. 

Grab PM Maggies View (GC78BE) and East of Eden (GCNX5H) while you're here.
