Boardwalk Tour II
This one is somewhat different- PLEASE READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS!
The POSTED coords are for PARKING ONLY - this is NOT a stage.
Here is another tour of the 1 mile long Rehoboth Beach boardwalk, where so many people like to stroll. It is an 8 stop multi tour (including final) and can be done by walking, bicycling, or driving- although it is designed as a walking or cycling tour. It is approximately 2 miles one way from start to finish, but can be done in any order. If you park at the posted coords (limited free parking- OFF SEASON ONLY) and walk or cycle, the round trip is just under 3 miles. From May 15 to Sept. 15, cycling on the boardwalk is limited to daybreak to 10 AM. All waypoints are included for direct download.
8/23/19- To avoid confusion, both the coords and the question for Stage 7 was changed. The answer for Stage 7 stays the same. Remainder of puzzle not changed.
12/14/23- Due to construction, both the coords and the question for Stage 3 were changed. The answer for Stage 3 stays the same. Remainder of puzzle not changed.
Cache Information:
At each waypoint, you will be looking for a word or a number (spell out any number). The directions will lead you to a particular letter of the alphabet. Translate that letter into a number via A=1, B=2, C=3, etc. Substitute the numbers for the symbols into the coords listed for the final.
