Geocache Description:

Note, cache is not at the listed coordinates, but you can park there.

A cache whose coordinates were determined when the Universe was formed...


A most familiar and yet mysterious number is the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter. This number is the universal constant known as PI. The value of PI was set when the Universe was created. And yet, billions of years later, it contains the coordinates of this cache, easily read in the listing of PI’s digits.

  • The full N coordinate can be found starting at the 12,334,954 th digit of PI
  • The full W coordinate can be found starting at the 80,937,058 th digit of PI.

A note from the creator (creator of the cache, not the Creator of the Universe) .... Unless you’ve memorized PI to a zillion digits, you need a source for PI. Do not call Baker’s Square.

One last thing .... Pens were not yet invented when the Universe was created so bring your own.

30-Mar-2006: The container was relocated within the park on the warmest (so far) day of the year. It was hidden on the coldest day, and the cachemaster didn't want to die in the attempt so it was originally a drive up hide. No marker was left at the location to minimize the wear and tear already evident. Difficulty and terrain values slightly increased.
