Geocache Description:

When MtMitchellBound placed their first multi-cache, The Birds of Lake Osbourne, many cachers oopsed and calculated coords that seemed to point to the Finnish Club. So, it seemed like the most appropriate spot to start this adventure.

In order to find the cache you will need to solve two puzzles, the first of which is shown below.

A FTF prize (once I figure out what it is) will be awarded at the July 7th pizza event.

How to solve the Acrosticache:

  1. Figure out the “Clues” by writing the definitions over the numbered dashes.
  2. Copy each letter into the correct numbered square in the diagram; blank spaces separate words.
  3. Once you solve a few of the clue words, you are on your way to solving the puzzle.
  4. When pattern is completed, the cache directions can be read from left to right.
  5. The first letters of the filled-in “Words” reading down, form an acrostic yielding some information.

The cache is within 2.3 miles of the posted coordinates.
