Geocache Description:


The listed coordinates are NOT the position of the cache. You must solve the puzzle below to determine the actual coordinates of the cache.

It's a word square! It's a cryptic crossword! It's a checkerboard! Solve the cryptic clues and enter their answers both across and down as in a word square (the first row and column will contain the same word, as will the second row and column, etc). Shaded squares get two letters each, while unshaded squares get one letter. The clues may or may not be in the order matching their grid placement. To get the coordinates for the cache, enter the ten squares from the top-left-to-bottom-right diagonals into Certitude.

Here is a PDF version for printing, and here is a Google Sheets version for online solving.
