Geocache Description:

A puzzle cache for those driving from PEI to NB with a friend. You'll need quick eyes to get this one. Blink and you'll miss it!

The final cache for this puzzle is located in New Brunswick shortly after you cross the Confederation Bridge. While you're crossing the bridge, get your caching buddy to help you: after all, traffic is not allowed to stop on the Confederation Bridge for any reason, and it is illegal to use a GPS while driving. Use a friend!

At the posted coordinates, you will be near the very top of the navigation channel that is marked by the highest point of the bridge. Every 250 m along the bridge, you will come across a yellow box on the northern side that has a telephone in it for emergencies. These yellow boxes have a number painted on their sides that is visible if you're driving in either direction. You need to get the three-digit number off the yellow phone box that is at the posted coordinates in order to find this cache. Keep your eyes peeled, you'll only get one chance!

Once your buddy has written down the number, continue across the bridge and take the very first exit onto Jourimain Island. Park the car here, solve the puzzle, and go claim your find.


The number on the post has 3 digits. For this puzzle, the 3 digits are ABC (where A is the first number, B is the second number and C is the third number).

The cache is located at:

N 46˚ 09.[B + 3][A x 2][C + 5]'
W 63˚ [ B ]9.[A + C][B - A][B + C - 1]

Checksum: N 33 W 29
