Sculpture Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

OldBaldEagle: Sad to say [:(]the tree-hide for this one has toppled and the cache revealed. Someone's made off with it. Three of the five waypoints have also been compromised in one way or another.
Thanks to all who worked this puzzle and found or tried to find the prize. OBE

Geocache Description:

Hi. My name is Art. This cache is for my buddy OBE who celebrates one year in the game on December 19, 2005. I’m using his log-on to upload this cache so he can’t be FTF. Just a little joke on him. The posted coordinates are for the new Seattle Art Museum Sculpture Park, but knowing that or going there won’t help you find this cache or any of the waypoints.


I like to drive around the city and look for art. Today I want to show you some of my favorite sculptures around Seattle.

I gave these two paintings to OBE a while back. He hasn’t got a clue. But you real geocachers will know what to do. So take a look at the pictures and then go look at some art sculptures. It will be lot’s of fun.






You don’t have to google, froogle or boogle to get what you need to know. No rot’n Caesar ciphers to decode, implode, or reload. Stay out of the html, xml, and intel. No trig, calc, nor analytic geometry required. Forget about glide ratio destination, waypoint projection, and reverse transvectoring. Just look at the pictures, get in your car and go. Get the Waypoints and then get the cache and some of the loot.

This is not a subscriber only cache. I don’t really give a flying fancy how many times you look at the page or when. Don’t look at the page. Look at the art. That’s the point.

What’s at stake? An ammo box full of Art supplies for one thing. Maybe a geocoin or two. Travel Bug’s? You betcha. How about the coveted Tiresome Usual Suspect FTF Prize? That won’t be in there too long. Take it if you qualify. You know who you are.

Have fun now. But be careful on the streets. Tell ‘em Art sent ya.

Temporary adjustment (until late Spring of 2007) Subtract 0.005 from the latitude and 0.109 from the longitude of the solved puzzle coordinates to locate WP #1.

At the present time, Waypoint #4 is sometimes fenced off while repairs are being made. Identify WP4 in an email to me and I will give you the coords for WP5.
