(ii) visit the cache Chalk This Up First Ashwell (GCWC9Z). There is a clue to the Chalk This Up Ashwell puzzle on the inside of the lid of this cache's box, and there is also a plastic bag containing some helpful pieces of paper that you can take away and keep if you want to solve the puzzle over lunch or something.
As this is a puzzle cache and may not get visited very often, PLEASE DO NOT LEAVE TRAVEL BUGS.
