This one's for the kids and the big kids. Answer the questions to get the coordinates for the cache.
**THE CACHE IS NOT AT THE LISTED COORDINATES**
This was originally going to be a puzzle cache that led to a micro in front of a place I frequent a little too often. Being the procrastinator that I am, I just never got around to stashing it. In the meantime, I went 'Looking for Lon' (GCPCKH) and realized that I could modify this cache to be larger and a bit more fun, at least I hope it is...
So, I checked with the owner, who I had previously explained geocaching to, and he was all for keeping it inside his establishment.
With that said, the cache can be found at
37.56.ABC
122.01.DEF
Answer the following questions to fill in the missing numbers (checksum of all missing digits is 28).
A = The number of gods that Captain Marvel draws his powers from - the number of members in Power Pack
B = The number of claws Wolverine has + the first digit of the X-mansion's address
C = The difference between the 2 digits of the issue of Superman in which he was killed by Doomsday.
D = The sum of the last 2 digits of the space sector Hal Jordan and Kyle Rayner patrol
E = The number of core members of the Justice League - the number of members of the Fantastic Four that are siblings
F = The first digit of the series which brought terror to Barrow Alaska + the number of Wonder Twins + the number of children the Scarlett Witch and the Vision had.
Once you get the coordinates, you can access the cache M/Tu/Th/F/Sa 11am-7pm, Wed 11am-8pm or Su 12-7pm (and that would be in Pacific Time).
Once you get there ask them if they have "geocache game pieces". They'll pass on the cache for you to rummage through. Be prepped for questions though, they were grilling me when I was dropping it off. You may also find them playing with the cache contents and if you get there on a Saturday afternoon, you'll probably run into me.
And a word of warning...the guys that work there are evil to the new employees and don't tell them about the geocache. They like to see the looks of confusion that the newbies get on their faces. So if someone looks at you and looks lost, tell them it's behind the counter, or ask for Joe, Mike, Andy or Marty.
The cache contains a bunch of trade items related to the establishment that it's in and again, I had the kids in mind for this one, so PLEASE bring them along with you. But don't blame me if they drag you to the place next door!
Oh yeah, and I gave the difficulty of a 2 stars just because of the questions. All the answers can be found online if you google them the right way.
I added a BIG old hint to make this easier now that there have been a few finds.
