McKitten's little buddy, Cougar (AKA Coug), loves Cougar Mountain Regional Wildland Park sooo much, that he thought it would be a grrrrrrrreat idea to have a puzzle cache honoring the very animals this park is named after! Why Coug, what a truly fantasic idea!!!!!

So, cachers, to find this cache, you must do a little "cougar work" prior to finding this one. The posted coordinates are for parking. To get the actual coordinates, you must answer the following questions:

The cougar is from what family? (number of letters in the word) = A

What kind of predator is the cougar? (number of words) = B

The cougar's primary food source comes from what family of animal? (number of letters in the name of the family of animals) = C

How many other predators compete with the cougar for its prey? (number of animals) = D

The cougar is also known as? (number of different names) = E

The state where the cougar has made a recent comeback in population to the point of having the largest population of cougars in North America? (number of letters in the name of the state)= F

Now complete the following coordinates with the answers obtained from the questions above:

N47 32.(A-5)(B-2)(C)

W122 0(D+3).0 (E-2) F


Coug says this cache should be easy to find. You need to take only a step off of the trail to obtain this cache. The cache is bigger than any mico or lock in lock, but is smaller than an ammo can. The FTF is a couple of "Georges" Good luck seekers!

CONGRATS TO TOBIAS AND PETRONELLA FOR THE FTF!
