Geocache Description:

Trying to help the local cachers earn one of the 7SofA (7 Souvenirs of August).


McGehee's First Puzzle?

We came down to this area to scope out a location for the ArkGeo Meet and Greet along with a place to have an ArkGeo CITO.  We noticed that there wasn't too many caches in the area and we didn't see any puzzles either. With that we decided to place a puzzle in the area to help you with your 7 Souvenirs of August.  Now hold on, don't get all negative and huffy about not knowing how to solve a puzzle.  I'll do my best to help you, if you are ready?

North Thirty Three degrees, Thirty Eight point Zero One Five    West Zero Ninty One degrees, Twenty Three point Three Three Two!  Congratulations!

One of the first things I do when looking at a puzzle cache is look to see if there is a Geochecker at the bottom of the page.  If there isn't, then that usually means the whole coords are given somewhere on the cache page and there will not be any doubt in your answer.  If there is one, then there might be a Red Herring or two on the cache page.

 

The next thing I do, is click on the page somewhere and then hold down the CTRL key and hit the letter 'A' at the same time.  By pressing both these keys at the same time, the whole page will be selected and highlighted revealing anything that is written in a white font, which you will now be able to see.

 

Another thing is to check for highlighted letters or numbers on the cache page.  This might lead to a pattern giving you clues as to how to solve for the coords or it could spell out the coords.

 

If there is a picture of a puzzle on the cache page, I.E. Crossword puzzle or Jigsaw puzzle or the likes, then I will usually solve it to see if the coords are revealed in the solution.

 

Well, for a beginning puzzle tutorial I think we have covered enough.  The solution to this puzzle has been mentioned as one of the things I do.

 

You will be looking for bison tube.
