Geocache Description:

Baker City has a puzzle cache! The cache is not hidden at the posted coordinates. The site does have some historical significance, however. The first cache in Baker City was placed here by logscaler back in 2004, but is now archived. If you like that kind of stuff, start at this location, otherwise ignore it.

A certain japanese man could solve this puzzle easily. Of course, not all of us can remember 100,000 sequential numbers in our head. That's what the internet is for. There is no theoretical limit (1.24 trillion are known as of 2002), so perhaps the full set of cache coordinates are in there somewhere. For now, we'll have to settle on two computations. The North coordinate is found at the nice round number of 8,084,400. Simply travel 27,285 numbers to find the West coordinate. The cache is located not far from downtown (same Lat and Lon as posted above). I thought I had come up with a fun, unique, never-before-thought-of cache until I found this one in Finland that was placed before mine. So, now that you know the ropes you can do that one as well (well.. given you'll be in Finland anytime soon).
