CONGRATULATIONS TO Team Kaiketsu FOR THE FTF!!! THIS IS A PUZZLE CACHE. IT IS NOT LOCATED AT THE LISTED COORDINATES. Do not go there, or you’ll get very wet (or you’ll needlessly be walking on ice during the winter). Instead, read details about the cache below, have fun discovering the locations of the time pieces, and then calculate the coordinates for the physical cache. Within the city limits of Fort Collins are numerous clocks or digital time boards that are visible and conspicuous from public roadways or sidewalks. I’ve encountered more than 20 on my routine meanderings around the city. Ten of these clocks are depicted as images through photo hot links on this cache page. Each image/clock is assigned a unique letter. You will need to find the locations of all 10 of these clocks. After you have discovered each clock determine it’s Latitude. Then use the Latitude’s integer minutes in the simple equations below to calculate the coordinates of the physical cache container and its log sheet. For example, if the Latitude of a clock is N 40° 32.671, the number to use is “32". Do NOT round up. PLACE LATITUDE A = __________________________________ _______ int min B = __________________________________ _______ int min C = __________________________________ _______ int min D = __________________________________ _______ int min E = __________________________________ _______ int min A+B+C+D+E = Y = __________ F = __________________________________ _______ int min G = __________________________________ _______ int min H = __________________________________ _______ int min J = __________________________________ _______ int min K = __________________________________ _______ int min F+G+H+J+K = Z = __________ The coordinates for the cache are: N 40° 33 . (Y - 164) (Y - 168) (Y-167) W 105° 03 . (Z - 170) (Z - 165) (Z-169) Enjoy learning more about The Choice City as you seek out the locations of the 10 clocks needed to solve this puzzle. It’s a darned nice city, and this cache will undoubtedly sharpen your familiarity with certain of its special dimensions. The cache is a medium-sized medicine vial that's been spray-painted for camo. I extend my appreciation to DES, whose caches in the “Where Are You...” series inspired this puzzle cache. I’ve truly enjoyed the world-wide “searches” I’ve made in order to solve the puzzles in this series! He’s encouraged me to create this mystery cache, which is the first of several caches of this genre that I expect to publish for the Fort Collins area. Additional Waypoints
