Geospaz and the Penguin! Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

Penguin Tracker: I never really make it out this way anymore. It only seems fair to free the location up for another Geocacher. This cache had a good run. Thank you to all those who have come out to find it.

Happy Caching!!

Geocache Description:

This is a tribute to Mr. & Mrs. Geospaz, for bringing us to some really fun parks, on our geoaching adventures!

The cache is located not far away from one of the first caches Mr. & Mrs. Geospaz had ever placed (GCN1QT then later it became GC2QV2P, both archived). Use stealth, BYOP and place back where found. Who knew there was a penguin in this park!?!

Congratulations Zombie Response Team on the FTF!


This cache is a spin off from the original caches that used to be here. The original cache had you count several items in the park, (unfortunately they kept changing over time) and it had you do lots of math, to figure out the solution. This one promises to be similar, but simpler. After all it was designed by a geo kid for other geo kids to figure out....And I am sure all the big geo kids will not have a problem with this one!

The above coordinates take you to the middle of a neighborhood park. 

A = The number of cul-de-sacs leading into the park +1. I know this won't change!!

Now for Math Class, just some simple addition (+) and subtraction (-).

B = A
C = A - A
D = A - A + A
E = A - A + A + A
F = A - A + A + A + A
G = A - A + A - A + A

Trying to make it look hard like the original cache!

Now go find the penguin!!
