    Trouble solving geocaching puzzle
    I have tried to solve this geocache puzzle for so long and I have been getting nowhere.. Now I am begging... um, I mean hoping that someone out there can help me.

    I need to figure out the coordinates from this:



    (34:08) (06:40 x 85:57) . (28:05 _ _ _ NIM + 490)

    (37:40 HAXO x 5) (46:28 - 10:45 - 32:27) . (11:05 + 11) + ( 85:48 x (11:05 x 32.27

    Here is the link that shows what the whole puzzle looks like if that helps.

    Also two clues were given to help solve this puzzle:

    1. You can do this with grade school math.
    2. The symbol below the picture is important.

    Please help... before I pull out all my hair! It would be so greatly appreciated.

    Pamela,

    Have you asked this over on the Geocaching.com forums? You might get more help.

    Alternatively, can you post the code for this cache? I'd be interested in taking a crack at it.
