Geocache Description:

Maybe?
Geckoh's Easy Peasy Puzzle Series


The cache is NOT at the
listed co-ordinates,

but it is within 5km.






Maybe you're saying, like some others out there in the Hamilton Caching Community......No More Puzzles!! ....Down with Puzzles!!....We don't like Puzzles!!...Puzzles are too hard!!


So......Welcome to Geckoh's Easy Peasy Puzzle Series! This series will not only be easy peasy for the most puzzle challenged amongst you but may even be a little fun!


And with solving the puzzle and making the find, there is even an extra special bonus (beyond that warm glowing feeling you gain from solving a puzzle) and that is each puzzle has written in the logbook part of the code for the bonus puzzle.


But wait.. there's more.. you will also get a hint for one of our other harder puzzles. By the end of the series you should have no cause to grumble that you can't solve some of the local puzzles.



Ok, for this puzzle cache we are going to use rhyming words and simple mathematics – just add up the letters and voila … you will have your co-ordinates:-










The Co-ords are:
S 37 AB.CDE
E 175 VW.XYZ





A = CASH

B = CACHE

C = SPLASH

D = ASH (-1)

E = HASH

V = DASH (-3)

W = MASH

X = FLASH (-4)

Y = PANACHE (+2)

Z = CRASH (-2)








Do you really need a geochecker?? Ok, fine, use the geochecker if you want to.. or you could ask a five year old to check your answers!


Check your solution


Now off you go, quick find the puzzle





And remember google is your friend!!!!



Note: Although this puzzle series is easy enough for a child, the areas where the caches are hidden are not necessarily child-friendly areas. Please watch the kiddly winkies!!
