Geocache Description:

A field puzzle cache created in celebration of our new old home in Durham, N.C.

Start at the listed coordinates, where you'll get to see our home in Durham's Morehead Hill neighborhood close up. There you'll find a clue to the final cache location nearby. The puzzle should be fairly easy to solve for experienced geocachers; newbies might need to study up on a term or two.

You're looking for a medium-size lock-n-lock style container. Initial contents include several copies of The Alethiometrists' Mix CD V 10.0, "Home," and – as a first-finder's prize – an unactivated, GC-trackable geocoin of our own design: our tribute to the infamous Canadian quarter "spy coin."
