Geocache Description:


In celebration of my wife's birthday, I wanted to do something special and give her a piece of geoart. I also wanted to celebrate with the rest of the geocaching community their UnBirthday. Alice in Wonderland is my favorite movie and I thought what better of an opportunity to share this wonderful classic with you. At time of placement each cache will contain a few pieces of “themed” swag, along with some other swapables should you wish to trade.

I hope you enjoy this series .. it was hard to pull off, she’s very intuitive, but up to time of publish, all she knows is we are making roadside caches. I am hoping for her not to “notice” the geoart attached to the caches.. I’ll update to let you how long I can keep it a secret. BTW .. I'm super bad at keeping surprises from her ... I just get super excited about it and have to tell her

All the puzzles are related to the 1951 Walt Disney Classic. If you have not seen the movie it is not required, as with some searching you should be able to obtain the answer, but I do recommend giving it a watch. The puzzles should be easy for most, and some cache pages may even answer another caches problem. The hides are fairly easy. The difficulty rating will be for the puzzle. If you have done a lot of puzzles and feel we have ranked it to easy or hard, please let us know.

As mentioned this is a mostly roadside series, with about an hour and a half walk down a snowmobile/bike/walking trail for caches 19 to the final 39th cache. WEAR RUBBER BOOTS for this part of the journey, at least they were NEEDED at time of placement. You will come across a few areas that say trail closed (depending time of year), but its closed for the snowmobile season, and all caches are accessible on foot. Not sure if they will be winter friendly. Will watch logs to see if anyone heads out for them that time of year. Also at time of placement there was a big fallen tree, it can be walked around safely.

Alice in Wonderland is a 1951 American animated musical fantasy-adventure film produced by Walt Disney Productions and based on the Alice books by Lewis Carroll. I had the pleasure of watching this for the first time at about age 7, and fell in love. I probably know 90% of the words to the movie, know every song, and love every character. I am so glad to be able to combine my wife’s birthday, your UnBirthday, and our favorite activity!!

*Update* Well it didn’t take long for me to blab. I was just so excited to see it go up, and when the logs started coming in, the secret was spilled.

I would like to congratulate Phyzicist & Sharpeye468 for being the first to blow out the whole candle, and for sending me the screenshot of it completed for our social media pages.

Thank you everyone so far for the logs!! They are wonderful and a joy to read. Also thank you in advance for those heading out to find and log!!

Congrats to Phyzicist & Sharpeye468 for FTF on this cache.

So in the words of the Mad Hatter “Now blow the candle out my dear, and make your wish come true, A very Merry UnBirthday to you!”

Can You blow out the geo art Candle?

Cache is NOT at posted cords.

There were very prominent characters in the movie. Are you good at cryptograms? Can you solve the puzzle and tell me who I am? When you check your solution, do not put spaces into your answer

You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.
