Geocache Description:

Cache is NOT at the posted coordinates.


Normally we tend to like puzzles that teach us something new. Frequently, caching has provided a lot of opportunities to visit new areas and to learn new topics, and there is no shortage of different puzzle types out there. Patience is very important when attempting a new puzzle cache. Puzzles can have a key, use cryptograms, employ codes, or be counter-intuitive. The caches that we like best are those that make you think about several different possibilities. Just because something doesn’t look obvious doesn’t mean that it isn’t! Difficulty is in the eye of the cache-seeker, and it’s always so rewarding to finally have that “Aha!” moment. Every puzzle cache has a specific method used for solving, the challenge is figuring out just what that method is (and depends on how crazy the CO happens to be).

 

Whether you like tough hides or not, we know that you like a challenge or you wouldn’t even consider this puzzle cache. If you have a lot of experience with solving puzzles, this one may not be that challenging to you. Some may find this to be difficult, so we suggest using the tools at your disposal to figure it out. The best resource is probably sitting right in front of you! Perhaps the answer is so close, but you just can’t seem to put your finger on it. Likewise, perhaps you knew the method needed to solve this puzzle right away and are busily plugging numbers into the Geo-checker. Retrieval of the cache itself should be pretty straightforward, but will require a little bit of a search. We wish you the best of luck…happy caching!
