This point of the Maryland Star involves a puzzle which is slightly more difficult than a multiple choice question, but should not be too challenging. Solve the puzzle below to find the coordinates for the cache container.

This geoart series is mostly made up of multiple choice questions. A handful have slightly harder puzzles--the five "points" of the star, and the center: GC4YVQX, GC4YVVG, GC4YVQY, GC4YCKN, GC4YVVC, and GC4YVNQ. For the multiple choice questions, below is a link to an outside web page that will allow you to download a corrected gpx file if all of the questions are answered correctly.
