Geocache Description:

A musical puzzle in 7 shape solfege.

This cache is NOT AT THE POSTED COORDINATES. And it is NOT located on the campus.  It is a quick park and grab that takes a little musical knowledge.  We have wanted to see how many music people are geocaching and create a puzzle that uses something that is important to us - Shape Note Music.  This type of music is depicted in the movie “The Sound of Music” when Julie Andrews sang “Doe a deer, a female deer”. To find this cache you must first learn your shape notes. In the puzzle below, each shape represents a number which will give you the correct coordinates to the cache. The final hiding place is in a high muggle area so stealth is required. Good luck!
