Geocache Description:

The cache is NOT at the posted coordinates. Solve the puzzle to get the real coordinates.

Step 1. Solve the crossword puzzle here.

Step 2. Multiply together the number of N's, C's and U's in the completed puzzle grid, that is, n*c*u where n= the number of N's, etc. That is a 4-digit number representing the last four digits of the North coordinates, i.e the X's in N37 2X.XXX.

Step 3. Next total each S, E, A, and H as one group, then do the same for R and L. Multiply those two totals, i.e. (s+e+a+h)*(r+l). That result is a 4-digit number representing the last four digits of the west coordinates, i.e., the X's in W122 0X.XXX.
