A Happy Buddha stops to take a rest while ascending an incline.
As he rests on the incline, the coefficient of static friction (mu) is .70021, which is very near the actual coefficient of friction for rubber shoes on rough wood. The friction force holding him in place is 624 Newtons. He is just on the verge of slipping down the incline. In fact, if the angle of the incline were just slightly higher, or if the coefficient of friction were slightly less, he would begin to slip. The angle of this incline is AB degrees. The Buddha's weight is XYZ kilograms. Starting at the listing coordinates, travel XYZ Meters on a bearing of AB degrees to find the cache.

Tftc found it with coloradoOB. It is a bit overgrown with all the rain we have been getting, felt a bit like Indiana Jones finding this one.

Grabbed this one on our way up the Incline. Needed to review our math skills as we didn't get it the first time. TFTC, SL.
