Additional translation added as I support a number of countries:

Lamento archivar este caché, ya que no ha habido ninguna comunicación del propietario en el tiempo transcurrido (un mes o más) desde que se publicó la nota del revisor.

Geocache Description:

You will be looking for a cammo painted plastic plastic container.

The coordinates listed are not the coordinates of the cache, but rather a place to stop and gather information from the "water"melon tower as you enter town in order to figure out where the cache is really hidden. The final location is almost exactly 1/2 mile away from here. The cache is hidden at the following location: N45 49.A W119 16.B Where A and B are three digit numbers. To figure out A: * The sum of the first and last digits equal the number of seeds in one of the watermelons on the tower. * The difference of the first and last digits equal the middle digit. To figure out B: * The sum of all the digits is equal to one less than total number of letters on the tower. * Two of the digits are the same. * One of the digits is equal to the number of letters found in the last word on the tower.
