- We’ll begin at the end
As we visit a friend
Of the Oregon Trail.
- When you find the first spot,
On the back numbers it’s got:
ABC,000
DE,000
FG
H
- We’ll move along now, Not by oxen nor with cow
As they did long before.
N 47° HH.AF(F+H)'
W 122° HF.GA(A+D)'
You’re looking for a bunch of numbers
For a lady whose name was Sumner.
Second number = I
Eighth number = J
- She didn’t want to live here, so
It’s off to the next coordinates we go!
N 47° (A-D)H.(D+D)(J-A-D)I'
W 122° H(I-H).(A+H)(G-D)(J-G)'
To claim the prize, find not one, but two lives,
Or at least the dates thereof.
Email me the dates and receive my reply before logging this cache.
I hope you enjoy it!
