Geocache Description:


The last in this Water Works baseball series. The cache coordinates listed are for a small parking lot in the general area of the cache. You will need these coordinates to figure the actual cache location.

The cache is in a sandwich box sized container so there should be room for small trade items.

It's called Water Works Park because the city's water well field is just east of the park.

You need the clues from the three other caches in this series:

You will need to do minor math to find this cache. Each of the above caches has instructions that apply to the last three digits of the base coordinates (the ones for this parking lot - N 41 08.615 / W 081 27.414). For example, if the instructions say "Subtract 013 from North" you would calculate 615 - 013 = 602 giving the north coordinate of: N 41 08.602.

You can check your answers for this puzzle on Geochecker.com. If you're still stuck you can email me with your clues and I'll check them.

As you get close to the cache you may need to be stealthy - the area seems to be used by kids as a bike jump path.

A squishy baseball with a "First to Find" oddity attached is there for the first lucky cacher.
