Geocache Description:

**** CACHE IS NOT AT THE POSTED COORDINATES ****
 (but it is the best place to park!)



This is an easy lil' puzzle that I created just to spice up an otherwise ordinary hide. There are several ways to get this one, but I think the most fun way is to simply solve the Sudoku puzzle above. I've included one number in each row to get you started, but the rest is up to you! Once you have the solution, you can get the actual coordinates for the cache using the formula below:

N 44° (B4-A3)(D1).(C3-B6)(D5-C2)(B3-F1)
W 93° (B1-F4)(F6).(E4)(A2)(D4-A6)

Location, Parking, and Access

This cache is located along the Minneapolis Urban Singletrack Off-Road Cycling Trails in Theodore Wirth Park. These trails are open to hikers as well as bikers, but keep your eyes and wits about you, as this is often a very busy place!

Free and legal street parking is available on the South side of Woodland Trail, off of Hidden Lakes Parkway, at the original coordinates listed for this cache: N 44° 59.534 W 093° 19.905. From there, it's a very short walk around the corner to the trailhead at N 44° 59.500 W 093° 19.950. Please do NOT park in the Hospital parking lot - it will only get you a few feet closer, and you'll risk getting your car towed!

You are looking for a regular-sized Lock 'n Lock container, hidden in the usual sort of place. It starts out with small toys, some nifty camping-related trinkets, a Yellow Jeep TB, two Geocoins, and a $5 Target Gift Card for the first finder. This is a great area to hike or bike, and while you're here, be sure to check out the other caches on the same trails...after all, you made it this far! Thanks, and as always - have fun, and happy hunting!
