Geocache Description:


The cache is not hidden at the given coordinates. Solve the puzzle below to find the cache coordinates.

Celebrating a milestone. Here's a different kind of puzzle that I copied from another geocacher. Enjoy!

Special Notes about the 2019 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, assuming one happens sometime in 2020). 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 puzzle: The original puzzle was rated at D3, but it took me a while to solve; so I bumped the rating on this one a tad, but maybe you'll find it to be easier.


You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.
