Geocache Description:

A quick, easy multi. If you are really horrible at math, you may want to bring a calculator (or your GPSr may already have that function).

The coordinates will bring you to a sign from which you will need information to figure out the final cache location. This may be a very busy location during the summer months, but you should be able to grab this one without too much interference from muggles.

There is a day use fee if you decide to park here. However, if you do the other LotusLand caches you can park there for free and enjoy a short walk to this location.

Final cache location at N38 48.LAT, W120 54.LON.

Go to the sign at the starting coordinates. Multiply the "Loop Distance" by 1000 and then add 5 and you will have your longitude (LON) portion of the coordinates.

Next go to the large sign at N38 48.216 W120 54.543. Look for the green banner in the center of the sign. Take the number in the white box, "Below ____" and divide by 10. Plug that number in the LAT position.

Have fun and enjoy the area. Please make sure the container is sealed back up well. If you have problems with it, kindly let me know and I will replace it.

(Edit: I originally wanted to take you to the larger sign first. However, Lotusland 2 got approved within minutes and I rushed to get this one online so no one ran out to get the FTF on LL2 and had to come back for LL3 {which incidentally happened anyway }. In the process of rushing, I mixed up the two waypoints and hence the starting point since you can no longer manipulate the posted coordinates. Sorry to the Travelin' Gnomes for the confusion.)
