Geocache Description:


THE CACHE IS NOT AT THE POSTED COORDINATES!


Welcome to the third edition of finding the odd man out! This puzzle is a spin off of moocher2notyou's puzzle caches with the same format: Odd Man Out and Odd Man Out 2. The concept is exactly the same. However, this time the lists are only numbers.

The tupperware container you seek contains a log book, pen, bag with kid stuff and a decon container with geo stuff. Typical hide. Short bushwhack off a nice trail. Remember to wear ORANGE during hunting season!

The coordinates for the cache you see are:

N 40 1A.BCD

W 76 1E.FGH

Be sure to GeoCheck your solution!
The GeoCheck page contains important information about the best way to access this geocache.



In each of the following lists one number does not belong for a very specific reason. Some of the riddles are worthy of a bright 5th grader. Others may require more specialized knowledge to recognize without some internet research. All of the categories are topics that I am particularly interested in and, if you aren't in a hurry to go anywhere, bring them up in conversation with me sometime and it will make my day. Find the number that does not belong and use the digit in parentheses for the corresponding letter in the coordinates.
