Geocache Description:

Harry Potter Multi-Puzzle Series 6 of 8

It will be necessary to find the first 7 HP caches before the final cache can be completed. Each of the first 7 colorful micros are concealed by an invisibility cloak to keep them secret from passing muggles. Please replace the cache exactly as found. Pay careful attention to anything HP related about the cache and log. Good luck!



The sport of wizards. This is the year that Harry Potter becomes captain of his Quidditch team. How well do you know the game?

Mount your brooms and multiply the number of scoring rings on the Quidditch pitch by the number of points a goal into one is worth.

Find the product of the number of players on a Quidditch team and the number of balls used in the game.

How many points did the Gryffindor team score against Ravenclaw during the Championship match in Harry's sixth year?

The Golden Snitch is the only way to end the game. Take the number of points this ball is worth and add the number of players on each team that are allowed to touch it.

What is the sum of Beaters, Bludgers, and Keepers that are present on the pitch during a match game?

Finish off this match by taking the page number where you found out the score of the Championship match and add the number of points you'd get if every Chaser on a team, in turn, threw the Quaffle through one of the goal hoops.

Much needed help will be found in Sectumsempra.

The following puzzle caches must be solved and found to complete this series:

GC1ZD5V GC1ZD5X GC1ZD60 GC1ZD64

GC1ZD67 GC1ZD6A GC1ZD6D GC1ZD6H
