Geocache Description:

DO NOT GO TO THE POSTED COODINATES BECAUSE THEY ARE BOGUS – IF YOU GO TO THESE COORDINATES YOU MAY FIND MANY THINGS, BUT YOU WILL NOT FIND A CACHE…SO DON’T GO THERE!!! (…OH YEAH, THERE’S NO FARM AT THESE COORDINATES EITHER, BUT WHATEVER!)

We have something in common with Mr. Eagle Dad…we share the same level of LOVE for puzzle caches, so, with Eagle Dad’s brilliant yet archived “GCPBH0 - Circle B Bar Puzzle Extravaganza” in mind, we offer the following challenge:

You will need to solve for A-B-C-D-E-F-G-H-I-J (Hence the increased difficulty rating). You are starting with:

N 28* AB.CDE
W 082* FG.HIJ


A. What number do you add to itself to get “0”?
B. One less than “5”.
C. Mimi’s Lucky Number (Hint: more than “2” and less than “4”)
D. The number of ears that the average person has plus “1”
E. Tea for ____ and Two for Tea.
F. Marc’s shoe size minus itself, plus “2”
G. Answer for B multiplied by “0”
H. The answers to “B” plus “C”
I. All for one and ______ for all!
J. The number that comes after “6”

Don’t tell anyone how you went about figuring this all out…you wouldn’t want to ruin this breathtaking challenge for others, would you?

By the way, the cache is a Decon container filled with "priceless trinkets" hidden just off a rustic fishing trail somewhere in the Lower Hillsborough Wilderness Trail somewhere between the Off-Road trail system and the Tampa Bypass Canal. If you want to make sure you figured this one out right and prevent what otherwise might become a wild goose chase, simply email us for confirmation. We’ll let you know if you are on the right track.

Lots of luck with this one!

...And now for the standard M&M geocaching disclaimers!

Dense tree cover may affect your final GPS readings so of course you may have to use your geocaching intuition to find the actual cache. Please rehide the cache securely and conceal it well so it cannot be seen. Have fun!

After you locate the cache please make sure to seal the Decon container properly by pressing down on all sides until they snap in place - otherwise the cache may not stay dry.


...AND THE MOST ESTEEMED FIRST FINDERS AWARD GOES TO SEEKERFAMILY, A TRULY GIFTED TEAM OF PUZZLE SOLVERS! WE ARE MOST IMPRESSED BY YOUR ACCOMPLISHMENT!
