Geocache Description:


Hi! My name is Mike. I like geocachers very much. I live in Moscow, in Kuskovo park. I am bear, and my forefathers lived in this place for centuries. Earlier it was a dense forest here. In this forest the noble Sheremetyevs constructed a manor. Here they hunted together with their guests, and balls were held in a fine wooden palace in Baroque style. A regular park with sculptures and pavilions was constructed here: Hermitage, Italian and Dutch - small houses around the palace. Near the palace there is a church with a huge spike, a greenhouse (where live performances were held) and the fine grotto decorated by very rare cockle-shells. Here you can also find a greater collection of paintings as well as the unique collection of ceramics from all over the world. Buildings of XVIII century are kept just perfectly. You can visit them if you buy ticket in a box-office (N 55 44.023 E 37 48.695). The box-office is opened from 10 AM till 3 PM, except for Mondays, Tuesdays and the last Wednesday of every month. Excursion takes 1,5 hours. Phone: +7 (495) 375-31-31. But I would like to invite you in a wild woods near the manor. I know that there is a treasure hidden somewhere in the park, and I wish to find it so much. All I have is the 7 pictures which are necessary for the quest, but no GPS-receiver. Let's unite our efforts: my pictures and yours GPS-receiver. To find the hidden cache you will have to visit 6 points and to solve 6 riddles which are drawn in the pictures. After that you’ll know coordinates of the point 7. And have no worries about me - I will find you somehow. By means of the picture 7 we will find the treasure and fairly divide it half-and-half – take tails and leave heads for me. Please, put good and interesting things inside, and try to describe about your adventures in detail - other bears are eager to know the truth! If you cannot write a response, just draw it!:) And good luck!
