Geocache Description:

A Cedar City Photo Puzzle Cache

THE CACHE IS NOT AT THE POSTED COORDINATES


For as long as I can remember, the area between College Avenue and 800 West on 200 North in Cedar City has been known as Burger Alley. A popular spot for the students from the nearby college, it is also an easy off/on for those traveling the interstate. While enjoying a hamburger, take a moment to explore Burger Alley. And possibly add another find to your collection.

This is meant to be an easy puzzle which can be solved by walking or driving along Burger Alley in Cedar City. You are looking for numbers. These numbers can be found by visiting the eating joint associated with each photo and then answering the question below said photo. Plug that number into the coordinates in the proper place and you'll know where to look to find the hiding spot of the geocache.

In other words-  Look at the photo → Answer the question → Plug in the answer → Repeat → Find the cache

A burger and a cache... life doesn't get any better than that.

Ready? Let's start


1.

After you find this noshery you'll notice several of these fixtures on the building.

Now head to the building's north side. How many of these do you see on this side of the building?
A = the number of the pictured fixtures on the north side


2.

The difference between a pillar and a column is that a pillar is decorative while a column is load bearing.
B= the number of pillars around the building less one. (pillars-1)


3.

On the corner you will find a streetlight next to the stop light. Look up. See the number on it?
C= the first of two digits on the light (_0)


4.

Look for a fire hydrant. Look for the year on the fire hydrant.
D= the last number (201_)


5.

You are looking for this-

How many of these are on the west side of the building?
E= the number these things that are on the west side. (they are light fixtures, if that helps)


6.

Do you see the traffic pole out front? There is a telephone number on it.
F= the first number of the telephone prefix (209 _51-3615)


7.

Find the big, green electrical box.
G= fourth digit of the number on the front of the box (113_6011)


8.

Look closely at the photo to make sure you are at the right hash house. Stand in front and look to the south. You will see a very large number. What is it?
H= the large, red number to the south


Now plug the numbers into their respective positions in the coordinates-

N 37 4A.BCD   W 113 0E.FGH

Congratulations! Now go find the hide.

p.s.- the hint will give it away so only use it if you need to.
