Geocache Description:

This is a lovely stretch of the Forth Clyde Canal that we have walked on numerous occasions.

The cache is not at the above coordinates as you will need to solve an easy puzzle to complete your quest.

LOCK + CANAL + CACHE = HIDDEN

Each letter represents a different number from 0 to 9. There is only one correct solution (where H does not equal zero)


This area is often frequented by fishermen so please be discrete.

Please be aware of your surroundings and take extra care with young children near the canal.

This could be a cache and dash as there is plenty of nearby parking or you could enjoy the peace and tranquility and a walk along the canal.

There are often swans and ducks and the odd squirrel to see.

You will find the cache at: 55N 5K.LAD 04W 2I.NAE

I have amended the location details with more accurate coords for the final cache location. Geochecker has been updated accordingly. The puzzle has not changed. (Updated 27 Jun 11 21:30).



Please ensure that you have the means to sign the log.
