Puzzles...
One of the more challenging aspects of geocaching can be puzzles, known as Mystery Caches. Trying to think like someone else can be difficult or near impossible at best for some of us. Knowing how and where to apply logic and puzzle solving skills can be learned by anyone.
Come out to Searcy to the meet-n-greet event for a presentation by Floaten on how to solve puzzles. He will provide a "hands on" demonstration and walk us through solving some great examples of puzzles elsewhere, then some of his own so that you will be able to collect the Geocaching Road Trip 2015 "Put On Your Thinking Cap" souvenir (available August 14-September 2).
By attending this event, you also qualify for the Geocaching Road Trip 2015"Meet Your Road Trip Crew" souvenir.
Be sure to be a part of the CITO that will be conducted at the Searcy Sports Complex at 9:30-10:30 a.m. See CITO event GC5Z0MC. As part of that, you will also earn the "High-Five For The Earth" souvenir.
