Memory Lane Mystery Cache
The Quicksters: I'm going to change archive this cache as I don't like it anymore as a Puzzle cache. I need to get more creative! I'll publish a new cache that is a traditional cache with the final coordinates being the same as this one.

This puzzle cache will have you looking for numbers and clues
within a 2 block area of downtown Oroville. The listed coordinates
will only take you to one of the waypoints needed to find the final
cache.
This cache is dedicated to the many trees planted in Oroville in a beautification project in 1996. Most clues relate to the plaques that can be found at the base of the trees, but some clues/numbers will need to be found along the way.
The final destination can be found at: N 48 AB.CDE' W 119 FG.HIJ' There is no particular order that you need to find the answers, but all will be needed in order to find the final cache.
Use the clues below to find the
corresponding number for each letter above.
A = C + H + 1
B = Ones digit for the elevation listed at N 48 56.214' W 119 26.203'.
