Geocache Description:

One more puzzle, this one is not too tough, though it is sometimes stated that the smarter you are, the more you may struggle with this puzzle. If you get stumped you can email me for a hint.

The cache is not at the listed coordinates!

The cache is hidden in a guardrail within two miles of the listed coordinates and a short distance from the calculated coordinates. Solve the puzzle in the image gallery and go get it!

The cache is located at N 44 27.ABC W 123 20.XYZ

I'm not sure what happened - I verified the coordinates on geochecker twice; once prior to publishing, once a few days after publishing, however now it returns incorrect for the correct answer. I apologize for that, especially for those who submitted the correct answer. I've switched to a different geo-checker, one that allows me more control. And once again, I am very sorry for the mixup. :(



There is parking near the cache, however, the area can also has a working use, so either park away from the rail (there is space away from the work area) or please be prepared to accommodate those who need access to the station.

The guardrail is set back off the road, but the road can be busy, so please supervise any children carefully.
