Geocache Description:


The cache is not hidden at the given coordinates. Solve the puzzle below to determine the real coordinates of the cache.

This week we have a couple of important events for a couple of different groups; so I thought I'd tie them together. If you can't figure out the puzzle, at least you can take this list with you if you find a time machine and maybe make a few bucks.

  • Delaware Park 10/8/02 #6
  • Delta Downs 2/14/08 #6

Special Notes about the 2018 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, if there even is a celebration party). The real challenge is to see whether I will have enough time to create a puzzle each month this 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: There is poison oak at the fence, but the cache is not at the fence.


You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.
