Geocache Description:


Please note: The final location of the cache is elsewhere, though it is within a 2 kilometer radius of the posted coordinates.

 

The cache itself is hidden in a park I enjoy visiting as well as using it as a peaceful short cut when crossing the vicinity.

This Mystery Cache mixes two of my favorite activities - geocaching and puzzles. Before COVID-19, I enjoyed solving nonograms, a.k.a. Griddlers or Pic-a-Pix, every morning on the train on my way to work. Nowadays I don't have as many opportunities so I'm always glad when one comes up.

In order to find the cache, you must first solve the puzzle. Just in case you're unfamiliar with nongrams, you can read about them here.

I suggest you print out the puzzle image; I personally prefer solving these with a pen or pencil.

In this specific nonogram, it might be best you use a pencil for reasons that'll become clear once you complete the whole grid.
