steagles: I'm archiving this one mainly because I have no idea when I'll be able to get out and maintain it. Look for Round Two sometime this summer.

Geocache Description:

Do NOT go to the posted coordinates. They will get you to a residential area. You must solve the puzzle below in order to find the cache.

We recently returned from a few weeks of travels. After seven states, twelve trackables, and 3000 miles, we are ready to place our next puzzle cache. We are starting this cache out with all 12 TBs and coins that we hoarded along the way.

Since so many trackables have a goal of visiting all 50 states, we thought it would be appropriate to do a puzzle in honor of the all the states in the USA. So, without further delay, here is the puzzle.

Colorado
Connecticut
New Hampshire
South Carolina
Maryland
Pennsylvania
South Carolina
Georgia
Wisconsin
Nothing (Hint: Put a zero.)
Idaho

Now, a few more things about the cache and its location.
* It is placed in a cemetery. Please be respectful of the surroundings.
* The container is what I would call water resistant, not water proof. We provided some plastic bags for you to place your trade items in. Please make sure that everything is in a plastic bag and seal the top as best as possible. Let me know if maintainence is required.
* This is NOT a travel bug hotel, but in order to keep the theme alive, it would be best to have bugs and coins in the cache at all times. If at all possible, please trade only trackables. Of course, this isn't required, just requested.
* The container is a plastic tub. The label says that it is to be used for storing CDs.
* There is plenty of natural cammo to keep it hidden from local kids. Please recover it well. Thanks!
* Have fun!

As with all of our puzzles, if you have questions or need a hint, just email us and ask. We're friendly people.

Geochecker link is coming. I'm experiencing technical difficulties.

Congratulations to Catlon for the FTF on this one... his third FTF on our caches. Bob, maybe you should switch to coffee. Special thanks to Harrison Adventure Team for finding my sunglasses. Whew! Now I don't have to squint!
