Geocache Description:

I've always enjoyed solving logic puzzles. I've always enjoyed programming. I decided it would be fun to combine a logic puzzle, a little PHP programming, and my new favorite pastime, Geocaching!


The coordinates above are not for the actual cache! They are for one of the many trailheads in the area!

To get the actual coordinates you need to solve the following logic puzzle.

When I recieved my new cache notification email from Geocaching.com this week, it was all scrambled up. I could tell that there were five new caches in the area, and that they were placed by five different cachers. Below are the facts that I could gleen from the email. Please help me determine which caches were placed by which cachers, what day they were placed, and what the name of the cache was.

  1. Neither Princess Buttercup nor threelanes placed a cache in Bull Creek on Sunday.
  2. No caches were placed by ydx3075 in Walnut Creek Park on Wednesday or Thursday.
  3. Either threelanes or TreyB placed a cache in Pease Park named Cache and Carry.
  4. A cache was placed in Lake Travis on either Sunday or Monday.
  5. A cache was placed in Bull Creek on Tuesday but it was not named Cache Me If You Can.
  6. txhipowr placed a cache in Barton Creek Greenbelt named I'm A Geocacher and It's Okay.
  7. ydx3075 did not place a cache on Sunday nor did he place a cache in Bull Creek.
  8. The Walnut Creek Park cache was not placed on Wednesday nor was it named Caching My Life Away.
  9. The name of the cache in Bull Creek is not The Dark Side of the Cache.
  10. Princess Buttercup did not name her's Cache Me If You Can.
