Geocache Description:

Located in a local park, the cache will require you to solve a sudoku puzzle to get the final coordinates. The cache can retrieved without trampling any of the nearby vegetation. Use the clue to save time and speed up the search.

The cache is located in local park where my daughter's lacrosse team holds their practices. The listed coordinates will get you to the parking area and the final location is only a short walk away. To get the coordinates for the cache you will need to solve the sudoku puzzle below and subsitute your puzzle answers into the following: N37 16.ABC, W121 54.DEF where

A= I6
B= H4
C= D3
D= G6
E= A1
F= E3

To solve the puzzle you will need to complete the grid so that each row, column and 3-by-3 box (in bold borders) contains every digit 1 to 9. Look here for strategies on how to solve this puzzle.

The cache is a 4 quart camo rubbermaid container. Dog walkers are active in the early morning and evenings. Weekends can be busy when the weather is nice.
