RACCOON’S RUSH

Robby the raccoon has made a new home along the banks of the Scioto River, just off Klondike Road where he spends his days snatching nuggets of gold as they float down stream.  Unfortunately Robby’s brother stole his stash of gold and relocated it, solve the puzzle below to help him locate it.

This pyramid of gold consists of six pieces of gold and a bed of four rocks, a total of 10.  Arrange the numbers 1 through 10 so that each golden piece results in the positive difference of the two numbers it rests upon.  I have given you two number’s in the correct locations to avoid confusion in decrypting the coordinates.

Once you have all the numbers in the correct location each number will correlate to a letter, note that the number 10 represents zero (0).

Please see reference chart above.

STAGE ONE is located at:

4 0 °  H G . B I F

8 3 °  I J . G G A

Please return the Final stage back to its original location.  Once again thank you for visiting my cache, have fun and be safe.
