Geocache Description:


Although there are 9 caches in the series, only 3 of the 9 will have numbers for the coordinates of the final cache. Write those numbers down, they will allow you to solve the mystery. Those caches having the numbers will identify the murderer, weapon used and the room the murder occurred in. So if you’re lucky you can solve the mystery without finding all 9 caches.

Who Killed Bigbucks?

Josiah Bigbucks, although outrageously rich was not well liked. Basically he was a jerk and disliked by all. He had several friends (if you can call them that), and family members who would benefit from his death. One night while giving his annual birthday geobash, Josiah was murdered, quite gruesome really. Your job is to identify the murderer, the weapon used and the room he was murdered in.

The Gun - This weapon is common. Josiah kept several around the house for security and everyone seemed to know where he kept them. Not a safe practice, especially if it turns out to be the murder weapon.

The Rope - Josiah had his grusome side. This hangman's noose is said to have been used at Tux's Enchanted Hanging Tree. Horse thieves may have felt its bite.

The Crossbow - Historically, crossbows played a significant role in the warfare of East Asia, Europe, and the Mediterranean. Josiah thought the crossbow hanging in the study was more attractive than a painting, no accounting for taste.
