Geocache Description:

This cache has you travel to 3 sculptures in downtown Pendleton, obtaining clues from each one, then making your way to the final destination. All sculptures are within 5 blocks from main street, but recommended you use a car to get to the final destination, and be extra careful when approaching this final destination. This cache is a peanut butter jar containing log book with several treasures.

To begin, obtain specific numbers near the sculptures to be used in a "number find" puzzle

Sculpture 1: The first location will take you to a sculpture titled "Sisters in Spirit. In what year was this sculpture dedicated? This year is a 4 digit number found in the "number find" puzzle.

Scultpure 2: Use this location (N 45 40 202 W 118 47 462) to view the second sculpture, and determine the date (month and day only mm/dd) it was completed. This is a 4 digit number found in the "number find" puzzle.

Sculpture 3: Use this location (N 45 40 312 W118 47 203) to find a bench and enjoy the location for a moment. Find the year of Marie Dorion birth and death, along with the year of Til Taylor birth and death. These 4 numbers are all numbers found in the "number find" puzzle.

Next step is to cross out the numbers you found from the "number find" puzzle, leaving 12 digits not used. These hidden numbers can be listed horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. You need to use the 12 remaining digits to complete the coordinates of the final location of the cache. The final location of the cache will be located at N4# ##.### W11# ##.### by placing the remaining digits found from the puzzle into the coordinates by the order they appear as if you were reading a paragraph.
