Brewboy: Basedon the condition of the area due to various storms and downed trees, looks like I will need to shut this one down. Thanks to all those that took the time to solve the puzzle. Cheers, Brewboy

Geocache Description:

NOTE: Posted coordinates are for parking, the cache is not at this location but it is nearby...except first, you have to solve the puzzle.

Solve the puzzle below to get the coordinates for the cache-for the purposes of this puzzle amber is X, ocher is O and umber is U. You can get to the cache using an unmarked trail system in this park; except for the last few feet, no bushwacking is necessary. Lots of poison ivy along the trail and some near the cache but you can pick your way through it without too much trouble. The cache can only hold a few small items such as geocoins; starting swag is a micromag flashlight. FTF gets $10.
