Geocache Description:

Lock-n-lock hidden in an obvious location within Thompson Park in Jamesburg.
Note: The cache is NOT at the above coordinates.
But you might want to consider parking there.

Recognize these locations?
The solution to finding the location of this cache is to identify the locations in the below pictures and to extract the DEGREES LATITUDE and LONGITUDE of those landmarks. (Treat all values as positives, irrelevant if they are N / S / E or W) Then puzzle them together as per the formulas to derive the final location.


A=
B=
C=
D=
E=
F=
G=
H=
I=
J=

Once you have the locations, extract the DEGREES LATITUDE and LONGITUDE of those landmarks. Ignore N / S / E / W, you only need the full degree value (minutes, seconds or anything to the right of the decimal are not needed).

T = Lon J - Lon E + Lat A
U = Lat F + Lat J - Lat G
V = Lon G * Lon C + Lon A - Lat B + Lon H

X = Lon D - Lon B - Lat J
Y = Lat H + Lat E - Lat D
Z = Lon H * Lat I + Lat G - Lon F

Location: north T° U.V west X° Y.Z
