12 The Triskaidekaphobic's Quandary - Blind
Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions
in our disclaimer.
As you can probably guess, there are 13 caches in this series! Triskaidekaphobia is the fear of 13, a number commonly associated with bad luck in Western culture.
This superstition leads some people to fear or avoid anything involving the number 13. In particular, this leads to interesting practices such as the numbering of floors as 1, 2, ..., 11, 12, 14, 15, ... , omitting the number 13, in many high-rise American hotels, the numbering of streets avoiding 13th Avenue, and so on. Apparently, 13 hasn't always been considered unlucky. In fact, it appears that in ancient times, 13 was either considered in a positive light or (more commonly) not at all. The association of bad luck with the number 13 has been attributed to the fact there were 13 people at the Last Supper of Jesus.
This trail is not for the feint hearted! Many of the caches required some physical exertion, which we will specify in the cache description if applicable.
This cache is not at the given location. You need to work out the puzzle below to work out the coordinates.
Congratulations to BCNorwich who endured the rain and got FTF!
