Seeing Spots #06: A Royal Bugger Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

Elocon: After doing some GIS research and looking at trail maps it seems this could be on private property owned by some lady living in SC. There's no house on the lot and the trail seems to clearly go right through here so someone is maintaining it for something. There's no obvious terminus to the Royal View trail and nothing indicating private property as you enter the lot. Rather than fight "the man" I'll just archive this.

Geocache Description:



Olivia's Ladybug


The cache is not at the specified coordinates. One could park there and look across the road for a Royal View or, perhaps, hike the Royal View Trail and even retrieve this cache.

Recently we had a small visitor in our house. A ladybug carousing in a plant I had watered. It was spotted by my daughter Olivia and I asked her to draw a picture for me. Of course this reminded me of a series of puzzles I had been working on.

THE PUZZLE is a Link-a-Pix or sometimes referred to as a Fill-a-Pix. Various puzzle sites have rules and some easy examples to get your feet wet if need be.

The basic rules are as follows:
1. Number pairs must be connected with a line that moves in the 4 basic directions filling a total of squares equal to that number (including the numbers themselves).
2. Squares with a 1 do not have a match and are considered static.
3. All squares must be filled in with either red or black.

Pay attention to the one thing on the cache container that is not like the others. You may need to know this for the premium-only bonus cache coming out later this year.
