Geocache Description:

My first puzzle cache. Lucky you.

The actual cache is not located at the posted coords. To obtain the correct coordinates solve the following puzzle. All terms are or were commonly used in the field of land surveying.

N42 0A.BCD
W080 0E.FGH

Perch=1A.5 Feet
Chain=6B Feet
Rod=16.C Feet
Link=7.D2 Inches

1 Mile=E0 Chains
pi=3.F4159
5 Links=G.30 Feet
1 Hectare=H.47 Acres

You can check your answers for this puzzle on Geochecker.com.

Difficulty is the puzzle rating not the hide. The final hide is very easy and not a long walk at all. Plenty of legal parking is available. Please do not disregard the nearby signs. Cache has been relocated 35' northeast because it kept disappearing.
