FluteFace: This one has had a good run. It's been close to my heart, but it's time to let it go. Thanks to all those who logged it, and especially to those who actually managed to solve it themselves. Ya done good!

Geocache Description:


This cache is not at the published coordinates!


There are many different kinds of music in this world. Some are man made, some are natural. Both can be beautiful in their own way.

This puzzle of (wo)man made music will take you to a place of music composed by Mother Nature. The coordinates to the cache are hidden in the musical piece included here.



Because I am a classically trained flutist, the puzzle is in that format. Visually, this is music in a basic sense. But, if you were to hear it played (or even played it yourself) you might wonder, as it bears little resemblance to what you might consider ‘classical’ music.

But don’t let that stop you. Persevere until you discover the cache’s true coordinates. Then visit the site and listen to some of Nature’s finest music.

Things for you to know:
  • Hints will be added after FTF. However, if you think you know the coordinates, you may e-mail me for confirmation before visiting the cache.
  • The ability to read music is not required to solve this puzzle, but it might be helpful.
  • Because of the nature of written music, the quarter rests () have no bearing on the puzzle’s solution.
  • You are looking for a small Lock & Lock.
  • This area is not stroller friendly.
  • Congrats to FilmFans on his FTF. He won a set of travel bug tags, but opted for a FF signature item instead.
Finally, please let me know if there are problems with either the cache or its coordinates. Most importantly, have fun!
