did you know there is a piece of the berlin wall in seattle center? or that a native american legend of whales swimming underground inspired two sculptures favored by children? how about a gently flowing waterfall over pavement where you can rinse the geocaching mud off your shoes? you'll see all this and more on this self-guided tour that covers approximately 5 square city blocks in seattle center.

to learn the location of the final container, you must solve for the missing words in the following phrases that can be found near the artwork at each waypoint. the number of letters in the missing word will be your solution value for that waypoint. when all waypoint values have been found, you can solve for the final container located two blocks away by a public mural at: N 47° qr.stu W 122° vw.xyz

although the waypoints can be completed in any order, they have been listed in the order which should provide the most efficient route. if you're ready, let's go!

You can check your answers for this puzzle on Geochecker.com.

the final cache location is clearly visible from the map shop across the street. fortunately, it is also on a frequent bus route, so you should be able to use a passing bus as a shield from prying eyes in the daytime. to insure longevity of this hide, please use discretion when retrieving and returning the container!

there are two trackables in this cache for the first and second to find. if you are claiming first to find, please take only one trackable and leave the other for the second to find. thanks!
