As Easy As RGB Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

Simply B: Time to archive some of my hides. I visited this location today and removed the cache container.

If anyone is still wondering about the solution or this final hide, please see the photo on this log. You're not alone, it took some finding by the whole KT crowd at the KT14 event when it went live.

Geocache Description:

This puzzle is inspired by the fact that all the colours your eyes see on a TV or computer screen are created from tiny red, green and blue dots.


In order to find this cache, you need to work out the colour of its lid.

To work that out, you need find the three KT14 traditional caches that have colourful lids – one red, one green and one blue. In those log books you will be given a percentage of that primary colour that is used to make this final cache lid's colour.

I'd suggest parking wherever suitable that you can find near the published coordinates along Pepper Street, and then walk around the base caches in the order: KT14 Wood then KT14 Field (you'll next pass where the now archived KT14 Lane was hidden, this doesn't affect the puzzle) and then finally KT14 Tree.

Once you have the colour information from those log books, use the table below to work out this cache lid's colour and so look up its coordinates. For example, if you found out that the final lid used 0% Red, 0% Green and 0% Blue then you would work out that it was Black and so the final cache would then be hidden at the Black coordinates in the table.
