Geocache Description:

The night before the IE Cache Bash of 2005 my wife broke her foot. I had the pleasure of driving her to Fontana several times a week for work, along the drive everyday I put this cache together. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

At your 1st stop there are 4 murals. I have them listed as 1 thru 4 starting at the left and going right.

At the 1st mural find the following:
How many Oranges are on the tree? =A

At the 2nd mural find the following:
How many letters are on the building? =B
How many letters in the person's full name? =C

At the 3rd mural find the following:
What is the number on the car? =D
How many farm animals are on the seal? =E
The Date at the top of the mural is 1xxx. xxx=F

At the 4th mural find the following:
How many vehicles are on the overpass? =G
Add the number from the motorcycle, train and the 2 race cars. =H

How many letters are on the freeway sign? =I

With this information go to Waypoint #2 at these Cordinates:
N 34 05.J
To find the rest of the North cords J= F+2(C+A+G)
W117 26.KL
To find the rest of the West cords K=I L=A-E+G

Once you have reached Waypoint #2
What is the date 1xxx? xxx=M

With this information go to Waypoint #3 at these Cordinates:
N 34 06.N
N=H-D+I+E+E+E
W117 26.OP
O=C+1 P=B-1

Once you have reached Waypoint #3
What is the day in June this will be opened? =Q

With this information go the final cache at these Cordinates:
N 34 06.R67
R=F-M+B-C
W117 26.ST
S=A-E T=Q+E

Finally you have done your math correct this will take you to the final location!! Hopefully after this little bit of Fontana History you know that Fontana is more then just a Speedway!

Big Thanks to LostLad, he replaced the cache container 1-6-07
