When I was a kid I loved doing jigsaw puzzles. Once I finished a
puzzle I would cover the top with wide clear tape and attach it to
my puzzle floor. After some time my entire bedroom floor was
covered with completed jigsaw puzzles.
After some searching I finally found a decent online jigsaw
puzzle creator. I found a nice skyline photo of Seattle (see
picture link) and then added coordinates over the top and created a
jigsaw puzzle you can do at your computer. Use the link below as a
guide to assembling the puzzle.
There are two different ways to do the puzzles. You may opt for
the Flash version - this works with any operating system and any
browser. Or, if you have a Windows computer, you may download an
executable (inside a zip file) and work with that. For the Windows
version, use the left mouse button to move the pieces and right
mouse button to rotate them. For both versions, when two adjacent
pieces are lined up they will automatically join and thereafter
move together. Initially I posted rather difficult versions of the
puzzle. Now you have the option of doing a much easier puzzle

The cache is located in NE Seattle. It is a magnetic Hide-a-key
box.
Enjoy!
