Geocache Description:

This is a 5 stage mystery cache. It consists of 4 clue locations and a final cache location.

This cache is intentionally not a "walk in a park" even though it is literally is a "walk in a park."

Stage 3 of this cache was model after a technique I have encountered while geocaching. I really enjoyed the challenge it provided so I decided to put together a cache that would get your "noodle" working.

This is not a kid friendly cache unless they really like a challenge.

At each of the four clue locations you will be presented a representation of the last three digits of the N and W coordinates of the next stage. They will be referred to as ABC DEF. These numbers will complete the following coordinate puzzle:

N 50 41.ABC
W 119 17.DEF

The cache is located at the 5th and final stage.

It is a camouflaged waterproof matchstick holder. It contains the log book only. Be sure to bring your own writing stick. Please make sure it is returned as you found it. ** A "short" pencil has been added to the Final stage.

Warning, this park is well used. There are normally high muggle counts. They coming in the form of dog walkers, soccer players, skateboaders, bmx bike riders and softball players. This adds to the difficulty. The cache can be done at night however you trade muggles for the dark. This cache should be available in winter too.

All coordinates have been checked and rechecked five times.

Good Luck, KnightOrc
