Geocache Description:


This is the 2nd in a series of movie themed puzzle caches. Each cache will use a New York Times crossword puzzle and will be titled after a film shot in New York City.

The New York Times Crossword Puzzles start out easy on Monday then get more challenging as the week goes on. The hardest crossword puzzles are published on Sundays. This is a Tuesday puzzle – pretty easy.

The 1975 film, Dog Day Afternoon, stars Al Pacino. It's the true story of a Brooklyn bank robbery that turns into a hostage situation on a hot summer day.


Please share your favorite Al Pacino film here online when you log your find.

This is a Tuesday puzzle (fairly easy). You must solve the crossword puzzle to get the coordinates to the cache.


You can easily print this crossword puzzle. I've made it available in a few different formats. Click on any of the following: PDF, PNG, or GIF.

Remember: This is a puzzle cache, so the cache is NOT at coordinates posted in this listing but as always is at the coordinates discoverd by solving the puzzle.


Happy puzzling and happy hunting!
