Geocache Description:

Consider this: A cacher acquired five new geocoin racks and was
beginning to compulsively arrange his extensive coin collection in
the compartments. Suddenly, he realized that he had inadvertently
spelled a word often associated with Seattle puzzle caches.

After discovering the mystery word, assign each letter in the
word a consecutive number beginning with 1. That is, the first
letter of the word equals 1, the second equals 2, and so on. Then,
start by using one of those values to perform these mathematical
operations:

Z = Y-2
Q = Z + 1
P = Q - Z - 1
X = Q - 5
B = X - 2
F = Q - B
G = X + 2

The micro is located at N 47 XP.EEF, W 122 BX.EGQ.

Please refrain from using the mystery word or any variation
thereof in your online log entry.
