Geocache Description:


The Vikings have landed in Ocean City and have decided to settle down in the area.

Help them find their new home!



The cache is not at the posted coordinates!

At that location you will find the Vikings who have recently arrived in Ocean City.

You will need to solve the puzzle in order to find the Viking's new home ... and the cache!

You should be able to just slow down in the road and get the answers needed to solve the puzzle.



Please do not approach the Vikings. They are on private property!

Please do not attempt to solve this puzzle in the dark! You will not be able to see the Vikings!
