Geocache Description:

The cache is not at the posted coordinates.


Everybody on Earth has a Mother. And every language seems to have its own unique way to say "Mom".

First determine the language for each of the following:

ahm _ _ _ _ _ _

moeder _ _ _ _ _

motina _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

haakui _ _ _ _ _

mor _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

umama _ _ _ _

náhko'e _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

mutter _ _ _ _ _ _

Second, determine the missing eight digits in these coordinates ... N27 0?.??? W080 0?.???.

Third, subtract .023 from the West coordinate to obtain the final location.

Once you get over the initial excitement of solving this, why not phone Mom to say “Hi”? She always appreciates a call. She might even help you to solve for the final!

You can check your answers for this puzzle on GeoChecker.com.

Final is a micro, so BYOP. Note the Terrain Rating; it's a rough bushwack to the Final!! Have fun!!
