You must complete the Lakeview By Night cache. Along the way,
you will find special trail markers that direct you off of the
trail to a nearby (stage) puzzle. There is a trail legend in the
start of Lakeview By Night that will show you what the Stage
markings look like. At each puzzle, you will find instructions on
how to complete the puzzle. Upon successful completion of a puzzle,
you will obtain two digits in this cache's coordinates, and then
return to the trail exactly where you left it. You will need a
pencil and paper in addition to your GPS, flashlight, and
batteries. These puzzles were originally meant to utilize your
senses at night. I had one additional "touch" puzzle that I did not
need for this cache. I may place that one at a later time.
You will get off of the trail, so be prepared for thorns and
elevation changes. Two of the puzzles require some prior
knowledge/trivia to solve. If you do not know the answer, you can
phone a friend for help. Otherwise, you may have to come back and
complete the cache once you determine the information you need.
The coordinates to the cache are: N32 5A.BCD W097 0W.XYZ
I have a $5 Starbucks gift card for the FTF who likely will have
to toil through any inconsistencies or mistakes I made in placing
this.
Once I determined the theme for the cache, I knew I wanted to
name it Stop Making Sense. I saw the Talking Heads the first time
when I was in graduate school at the University of Florida. I loved
the show and they have been one of my favorites ever since.
