I want to do another cache that requires some research up front.
Here's my plan, and I'll do the numbers on my daughter's cache (Junior Fries
Treasure). Coordinates are N 38 47.080' W 90 36.890'.
First, the finder should find pi. A big, full version of pi with no digits
missing. 3.14159265 and so forth. Count the 3. as 0, and count the 1 after the
decimal place as the first digit.
For the north coordinate, take the five digits of pi starting at digit 13,587.
Use these with N 38 xx.xxx'.
For the west coordinate, take the five digits of pi starting at digit 122,621.
Use these with W 90 yy.yyy'.
Is this evil beyond evil or should I just make the reward in the cache really,
really cool?
