Geocache Description:

The cache is not at the above location.


Solve the puzzle to find the cache. No special skills or knowledge is needed. Anyone can solve this puzzle.


Simply place the 9 tiles together in a 3 x 3 square so that each
edge perfectly matches the edge of the adjacent tile.


You will need to rearrange and/or rotate the tiles to find the solution.

Each tile is designated A1, A2, A3, B1....C3 etc.

When you have all the tiles in the right place, and orientation, the cache can be found at:
41° (A1)(A1) . (A3)(C2)(C3-A2)
80° (C3-C2)(A3-A1) . (A3-C1)(C2)(C3-B3)

Area can get muddy, so boots may be necessary.

Congratulations to Chris K in Geauga on nabbing the FTF.

I would also like to thank Chris K for alerting me to the fact that this particular puzzle has two possible solutions. There are two tiles that when paired together, can be rotated 180 degrees and still match the surrounding tiles.

So I have edited the formula's so that neither of those tiles is used in determining the correct coordinates.
