Geocache Description:

Can you find the cacher?

The given coordinates will not take you to the cache. They do lead you to a good parking area to begin your hike. In order to determine the actual coordinates you have to solve the puzzle described below.

I have a friend that I go out caching with whenever we can find the time. My caching partner has pretty much the same interests as I do in terms of what kind of caches to look for, so we get along pretty well. Our geocaching styles are very much different though, which really works to our advantage on a lot of hunts. One other clue is that we were given the handle "caching with shovels tour" during the winter of 2010-2011 due to the number of caches we dug out of the snow.

The key to solving this puzzle is to discover who my caching partner is. To do that, you can study the four pictures below. I have removed the heads from the four people so that you can not identify them by their faces. All you have to do is determine which one I go caching with. That information will lead you to the correct coordinates for the hide.

If you cannot determine which picture is the right one, take a look at the hint. It should help.

The terrain rating is a 2, which is probably pretty good for this cache. It is a fairly long hike (about 1-3/4 miles round trip). Most of it is on an easy trail, but the last several several feet may take you into a thorny area. The difficulty rating reflects both the difficulty of the puzzle and the difficulty of the hide.

Please note that this cache is on Pennsylvania gamelands. Be sure to abide by all the rules and regulations of the gamelands. And WEAR ORANGE DURING HUNTING SEASON.
