Geocache Description:

Cache not at posted Coords you will have to solve the following puzzle to figure out the final location.

The highest recorded temperature was 10A °F (42 °C) in 1998, and the lowest was −27 °F (−33 °C) in 1971

The park is about 30 miles (48 km) long from north to south, and its width varies from a maximum of about 1B miles

More than C00 pueblo-builder sites have been identified in the park at a wide variety of locations

The park’s elevation above sea level varies from a low of D,340 feet (1,630 m) along the Puerco River to a high of 6,230 feet (1,900 m) at Pilot Rock

Over time, however, a persistently dry climate led to out-migration, and the last residents abandoned Puerco Pueblo in about 1E80 CE.

The park's earliest human inhabitants arrived at least F,000 years ago.
