Geocache Description:

A cache with this name was originally placed in too close proximity to an existing cache, and was therefore deleted shortly after being activated.

I retrieved the original cache container and thought I would relocate it and reactivate it, while retaining the name and starting location.

This is now a puzzle cache, requiring an in-person visit as well as some on-line research, unless you know your Seahawks history ...

Start by going to the listed coordinates; this will take you near the original placement by Qwest Field.

There is a piece of artwork at the coordinates which helped to give the cache its name.

Find the nearby plaque which identifies the artwork.

Key to the offset cache coordinates:

A = The number of pieces in this art exhibit
B = The number of letters in the second half of the name of the piece: rock___
C = The sum of the middle two digits from the year the piece was placed
D = Jim Zorn’s jersey number divided by 2
E = Kenny Easley’s jersey number divided by 5
F = Steve Largent’s jersey number divided by 10
G = Curt Warner’s jersey number divided by 4
H = Matt Hasselbeck’s jersey number divided by 2
I = Shaun Alexander’s jersey number, first digit only
J = Number of receptions the Seahawks kicker, Efren Herrera, made on the Seahawks national "coming-out game" (Monday Night Football 1979)

Not all of the letter keys listed above will be required to solve for the location of the cache; however, you may want to solve them all to verify that each represents a different single digit number from 0-9.

The cache is located at:
N HG ID.FCI
W 122 JE.FAB

The cache is a black hide-a-key container.
Bring your own writing utensil.
Please replace the container closed side up to help keep water out and retain the integrity of the log.

Go Seahawks!
