Puppet Puzzle (GC1R6F8)

The boys and I headed to Spanaway Park to enjoy the sunny day and find a few geocaches.  We started with this great puzzle.  See if you know the number...
There is a number with an interesting property:


When divided by 2, the remainder is 1.
When divided by 3, the remainder is 2.
When divided by 4, the remainder is 3.
When divided by 5, the remainder is 4.
When divided by 6, the remainder is 5.
When divided by 7, the remainder is 6.
When divided by 8, the remainder is 7.
When divided by 9, the remainder is 8.
When divided by 10, the remainder is 9.


Answer is ABCD


N47 07.AAB
W122 26.(D-C) (A+B) (A+B+C)
It didn't take me long to do the math and find the right number.  So Superman (Oliver), Indian Jones (Ethan), and I head out to find it.  We found the cache with no problem.  I'm not sure why but the cache container was full of socks, not used socks but just pairs of new socks.  We didn't take any but we had fun none the less.
