Geocache Description:

Click To Rate This Cache

This is a 4 stage multi-cache located in Pittsfield Township's Lillie Park East. Park hours are from dawn to dusk. There is ample parking located off of Platt Rd., with restrooms, playground equipment, soccer fields and picnic tables nearby. Stage 1 has some tree cover that may be troublesome to some GPSr's, but staying on the path will get you where you need to be. Due to the nice paths in this park, the terrain is rated a 1 for all but the last stage, which is rated a 2. Bushwhacking is only required for the final stage, so please stay on the groomed paths until you get to that point. Also, don't forget to take time out during your adventure here, to stop and enjoy the beauty of this nature area. Have fun!

Stage 1
The listed coordinates will take you to a post with a number on it. Call this number Alpha. Now continue eastward on the woodchip pathway and you will see another post with a number on it (located near a bench). Call this number Beta.
Alpha + Beta = Gamma. Now use Gamma to calculate the coordinates to Stage 2.
