Hidden along the trail are 11
containers. Each container has a laminated slip of paper.
On the paper is a missing letter clue showing the
corresponding place it is used. For example, suppose you
found a slip of paper with XXXA XXAXX XXX XXXX. The
phrase is four words. Each X represents a missing letter.
The first word ends with an A. The second word has an
"A" as the third letter. There are no more A's
in the phrase. Use the solving area below to write the
missing letter in the appropriate space. REPLACE
The SLIP OF PAPER IN THE CONTAINER FOR THE NEXT
GEOCACHER AND REHIDE THE CONTAINER CAREFULLY. |
Go to the next container. Suppose the it
contains XXTX XTXXX TXX XXXX. Now you know that the third letter
of the first word is a "T". The second letter of the
second word is a "T". The first letter of the third
word is a "T". Continue finding the containers with
other missing letters for the phrase.
The trail is found in the Kettle Moraine.
It is child and pet friendly. Only one container is further than
20 feet off of the trail. Most containters are found within
10 feet off of the trail. Bush-wacking isn't necessary! Really!
The coordinates for each of the containers is given below. The
containers can be found in any order. The goal is
to enjoy the trail, solve the geocaching phrase, email it to
me, wait for my reply, then log the cache as a
find. I know, I know, it's not immediate gratification as
logging a find immediately.
One of the containers is a little larger
than the others. In this container is a pen/pencil and a log just
large enough for the date and team name. This log is a
formaility. Finding this container does NOT mean
you are done. The
goal, once again, is to enjoy the trail, solve the phrase and
email it to me before logging a find. Logging the find before the phrase is verified is
a huge NO, NO. Small Print
follows: I will delete the unverified finder.
A savy Wheel-Watching-Geocacher does not
have to find all of the containers to solve the geocaching
phrase. Please find the log-in container, though.
Use the following squares to help solve
the phrase.
If
you really want the hints, use the key to the right.

There are three possibilities for
parking. All areas are little more than a wide place in the road.
You will find barbed wire and woven wire
along the trail. The trail is clearly marked. Please stay on the
trail until the final 15-20 feet.
REPLACE The SLIP OF PAPER IN THE
CONTAINER FOR THE NEXT GEOCACHER AND REHIDE THE
CONTAINER CAREFULLY. Each container has a number of the same
slips, just in case one gets misplaced.
