Geocache Description:


The cache is not located at the given coordinates, though you can find parking there. Solve the puzzle to determine the coordinates of the cache.

I usually think these puzzles are easier than they seem to be. This is another one in the "classic" kablooey Puzzle Challenge style. I've actually seen some of these items on my road trips. Maybe you've seen them on yours, but probably there are some things here you haven't yet seen; so maybe it's time to take another trip!

You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.

Special Notes about the 2023 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, which will probably happen in Spring 2024). The real challenge is to see whether I can keep from getting so frustrated by submitting caches that I decide to quit! 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 puzzle: The parking near the cache site is reserved; so you should park down below.
