Geocache Description:

NOT AT ABOVE COORDINATES.

The cache is a silver container, slightly smaller than a film canister, that contains a log and a pencil stub.

You must solve a puzzle to get the coordinates of the cache.

Fill a five-by-five grid with one each of the letters from A to Y such that all of the following conditions are met. Two letters are considered to be next to each other if and only if their cells share an edge (diagonally does not count). When the grid is filled, use it to decode the coordinates.

A-I are connected; you can get from any one of the letters from A-I to any other by passing only horizontally and vertically through only the letters from A-I.

B is next to L.

B is 4 spaces above Q.

C is 2 spaces directly below D.

E is 1 space directly above A.

G is 4 spaces to the left of Q.

H and F are in the same row.

K is in the same row or column as H.

L is 4 spaces to the right of T.

M is some positive number of spaces directly beneath S.

N is some positive number of spaces to the left of V.

O is in the same row or column as L and in the same row or column as E.

O is not next to T.

P is an equal number of spaces horizontally and vertically from I.

R is some positive number of spaces above F.

S is next to E.

S is 2 spaces away (either horizontally or vertically) from T.

U is next to J.

V is next to W.

W is next to X.

Y is not next to U.

No letter in a corner space is next to an odd-numbered letter (A, C, E, ..., Y).

One row contains only even-numbered letters (B, D, F, ..., X).
