Geocache Description:

Harry Potter Multi-Puzzle Series 8 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!



Use the first 7 caches in order by the primary color of the container:

Yellow - - Black - - Red - - Gold

Yellow - - Bronze - - Silver - - Green

On the parchment scroll below, make the connections between the initials of the character noted on each cache to a house symbol as described to find the numbers needed to sort out the coordinates:

HP1- SW corner of initials to the eye of the house animal in the school crest.

HP2- NE corner of initials to the center of the grand letter of the house crest.

HP3- NW corner of initials to the center of the grand letter of the house crest.

HP4- SE corner of initials to the eye of the house animal in the school crest.

HP5- SE corner of initials to the center of the grand letter of the house crest.

HP6- SW corner of initials to the eye of the house animal in the school crest.

HP7- SW corner of initials to the center of the grand letter of the house crest.


A straight edge will help

Container colors are the house colors. There isn't necessarily any link between the character and the house named in each cache.

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

GC1ZD5V GC1ZD5X GC1ZD60 GC1ZD64

GC1ZD67 GC1ZD6A GC1ZD6D GC1ZD6H
