Getting Benched Multi-Cache

When I first found this cache in 2006, I thought it one of the best ever.  Now, over a thousand finds later, it is still an all-time favorite.  That's why I jumped at the opportunity of adopting it.  Please see below for the original owner's comments.  At the time of adoption, I also moved the cache to what should be a more secure location.  The clues below have been updated for the new location.

Careful - At least one site has two benches not far apart.  Be sure to go where your GPS receiver or phone indicates!

Update - July, 2018:  Moved the cache due to overgrown conditions and updated the clues to a simpler format.

Finding this cache will take you on a great walking tour of the grasslands between Gearhart and the ocean.  Start at the coordinates below (the posted coordinates for the cache):
