Modeled after Cow Parades in Chicago, the Pittsburgh exhibit featured 100 fiberglass dinosaurs. This project was sponsored by local businesses and organizations who had the opportunity to decorate their dinosaur. They were then placed around the city for all to see. Although many of these dinosaurs are no longer in the city, some still reside in the 'burgh. This series will show you where some are located. Hope you enjoy. Pictures are welcome but please do not post a photo that would give away too many of the puzzle answers. Thanks.
The above coordinates will take you to one of the dinosaurs. This one resides at the Pittsburgh Board of Education, in Oakland at the corner of Forbes Avenue and North Bellefield Avenue.
The cache container is a micro hanging in a spot easily walkable from the dino. Metered street parking is available. Please bring your own pen! The cache is located at:
