NOTE 10/30/16

Art piece “G” has been changed; final is still in the same location

 

The cache is not at the given coords, but is within 700 ft.

Posted below are 10 photos of art pieces around Boulder.  Identify the locations and determine the longitude of the main feature shown.  Then use the integer minutes in the equations below to find the coords for the final.  (For example, if the longitude is -105º  23.782’, the number to use below would be 23.)

If you get stumped, ask a friend, or the owner will gladly supply hints.

       A+B+C+D+E = X = ______

 

F = ______________     ______ int min

G = ______________     ______ int min

H = ______________     ______ int min

J = ______________     ______ int min

K = ______________     ______ int min

       F+G+H+J+K = Y = ______

 

Final is at:
