Great Detectives: Millhone, the Sequel Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

The WBs: I was considering re-deployment or transferring ownership on the detectives, as circumstances are unfortunately preventing the maintenance I should be providing. Archiving is the best option, based on the tone of the DNF logs and dwindling interest in caches in the "unknown" category that are not challenge caches. Thanks for playing!

Geocache Description:

Kinsey Millhone needed a new home. The puzzle's basically the same (to be fair to those who had solved but not yet found) but the location and container is new (so those who found the old one can also claim here if they wish). NOT AT THE POSTED COORDINATES. PLEASE PARK RESPONSIBLY.


Location is BIBB (Best if By Bike) (or hiking in) from the parking coordinates. Distance from recommended parking to solved final is approximately 2.5 miles (and that distance is indicated by the terrain rating and attributes). When parking closer or with chauffeur service, terrain would be 1.5 and the hike distance attribute removed.

That question mark on the map? Not the real coordinates, but just the virtual markers for 2 new Great Detectives and 5 sequels. You'll need to solve the puzzles to discover where the containers are. You can park once, then bike or hike in and get all 7.


The very short story below has information a cache detective can use to deduce a location.

Kinsey Millhone: "'C' is NOT for Cache"


Kinsey Millhone kicked back in her Santa Theresa apartment, thinking back on a certain deadbeat boyfriend. She chuckled a bit when she thought of a really lame alibi he had for standing her up once; his alibi was that he got so caught up in an episode of “Homicide: Life on the Street” that he forgot to meet her for dinner. Never mind how stupid she thought the “Homicide” show was, their relationship turned out to be as welcome as a burglar to any gumshoe.

He had tried to act all innocent, like many a fugitive from reality she had met. Kinsey had a strict zero tolerance policy when it came to a reality fugitive, especially when the evidence indicated the relationship was a corpse with this deadbeat. Case closed.


Use the hidden location (the same as in the original Kinsey Millhone puzzle) in this chart to find the (new) final.

Kinsey Millhone was created by Sue Grafton.
