Geocache Description:

The listed coordinates are NOT the location of the cache. This will take you to nearby parking. Unscramble the words to get the coordinates to the cache, which is a regular ammo box.

This is another in the Caching with Condella series from FOX6 Chief Meteorologist Vince Condella. As always, the cache is hidden by Jim Hyatt, secondary education manager for Schlitz Audubon Nature Center in Milwaukee.

The cache is located in a Milwaukee County Park, open dawn to 10pm. No dogs allowed. Difficulty rating is due to the puzzle. Once you get the coordinates to the cache, the placement is pretty easy. Terrain is tough with deep snow on the ground - bring your boots. Without snow, it's a flat walk, but NOT wheelchair accessible.

It's time for the Jumble! Unscramble these ordinary English words.

1. glaee

2. dgee

3. edradl

4. nnhealc

5. bmtrei

6. nfeirg

The cache is found at: N43 09.ABC W087 57.DEF

If each letter of the alphabet corresponds to a number from 1 to 26, e.g. A=1, B=2, C=3......Z=26, then:

A = the number corresponding to the 1st letter of the 1st unscrambled word.

B = the number corresponding to the 4th letter of the 2nd word

C = the number corresponding to the 2nd letter of the 3rd word

D = the number corresponding to the 6th letter of the 4th word

E = the number corresponding to the 4th letter of the 5th word

F = the number corresponding to the 4th letter of the 6th word

Take a photo of yourself or group at the cache and send it to Vince at FOX6 (weather6@foxwiti.com) so he can share it with his viewers.
