Geocache Description:

We all love a good puzzle. Especially the ones that leave you needing an asprin from straining your head too much. We hope that this one will be that good for you.

The cache is NOT at the listed coordinates, so do not attempt to find GZ there.

The difficulty of this puzzle is more like an either/or. It's either five stars for the difficulty of the puzzle, or you can take the five star difficulty of the terrain by requesting to take the physical challenge.

To begin, click the picture link below for the puzzle. There is no hidden text or messages on this page. You will just have to solve the puzzle. There may be a hint hidden somewhere on this page, or there might not be. Once you solve the puzzle, please do not give the solution away to other cachers. Just refer them back to the cache page. The puzzle's solution will tell you everything you need to know/do to find the final cache.

However, if the puzzle turns out to be too much for you, you can opt for the physical challenge. This will not be available until the listing has been published for one week. After the first week, you can email me asking for the final coords to the cache. I will email you a set of coords that will have a cache hidden there that will give you the coords for the final. Although, you will have to figure out which coords they are. I have the correct coords and a list of 24 other points on the island that will be included in the list. At one of these 25 locations, you will find a container of unknown size which will give you the final coords. Because you may have to do a large amount of traveling, climing, swimming, etc to find the final coords the terrain for this cache is listed as a five star.

You can check the coordinates you get from this puzzle on Geochecker.com.

FTF prize is a $15 gift card to iTunes and a soft case that can be used for GPS, cell phone, digital camera or whatever you want. The next eight cachers that find the cache will be able to take one smiley face magnet. Because in the end, that's what the game is about... the smiley.

Congrats to The Muggle Family on their FTF, and to the EQ crew and TLBeers on a close second. Took less time than I had expected. I'll be working on a harder puzzle now :P

And now, without further ado... click the link below for the puzzle.
