Geocache Description:

The cache is not at the posted coordinates.


How well do you know, or can find the answers to some puzzles about our great 50 United States?



Utah has national forests and state parks, but no designated state forests. (At least that we could find!) However most other states to have state forests. To find the final coordinates, decipher the state forest names below, then match them to the state they are in. Substitute the appropriate number for the state for the final coordinates.


The final is as close to a forest as we get in our neighborhood!
