Traveling Ladybug selected the theme for this month's puzzle. Then, I just had to figure out a way to find enough data to get some coordinates. It required multiple sources, but here we go:
- 1442174 (1994-1996)
- 1711707 (1987)
- 1213452 (1978)

- 0263052 (1968,1970)
- 1708073 (1987)
- 0741103 (1995)
- 2285958 (1951)

Special Notes about the 2016 Puzzle Challenge: To be considered for Fastest Solver points, you must verify your solution with Certitude. Finders will receive Top Finder points when submitting Found It logs to the cache page. All "point" scoring is arbitrary, subject to change, at the discretion of the cache owner, and probably completely meaningless (unless you just want to be announced sooner at the celebration party in December, and even that might not happen in the right order). The real challenge is just to see whether you can solve all of these caches by the end of the year. To maintain fairness, hints should not be offered by the cache owner or other solvers until the fifteenth of the month.
Special Notes about this month's cache: Yes, it would probably have made more sense for the cache to be up in the tree, but it's at the base. After seeing some logs noting that people are having trouble parking, you might want to do a little research before visiting the cache, as there is convenient legal parking within a couple hundred feet. Oh yeah, I might as well also point out that problem some of you are having figuring out a couple of digits is probably going come back to haunt you in December

You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.
