Geocache Description:

Cache location and parking

The cache is not at the listed coordinates. However, this would be a good place to park while looking for this cache. The hike is just over 1/2 mile round trip. If you decide to park on Rokeby Road, be warned that the hike is shorter but the terrain rating is much higher approaching from this direction.



The Puzzle

There are many types of puzzle caches out there. Challenge caches, various codes and/or ciphers, Sudoku puzzles, number fill-ins, numerous calculations and formulas, and many more. Hopefully, at least a few of our fellow geocachers will find this puzzle a little……punny (I mean funny).


N ab cd.efg W hij kl.mno


Listed below are signs that may or may not be real. Although, the world would be a funnier place if they really did exist. All you need to do is match the slogan with the location it is most likely to be found. Once all the slogans and locations are matched, plug the number (from the location list) into the appropriate space in the coordinates (using the letters from the slogans).


For Example:

If the answer to slogan “A” is “Podiatrist's office”, plug the number “9” into position “A” of the coordinates (N 9b cd.efg W hij kl.mno). By the way….this is not the correct answer.


The cache container is a small lock-n-lock filled with small 3D puzzle games. Depending on your approach, this can be an easy journey with about 30 feet of light bushwacking….or, it could be much more difficult.
