Geocache Description:


Driving eastbound on I-84 in Oregon?  Need some geocaching entertainment?  This may be the solution!

 

There are four rest stops between the Oregon cities of Pendleton and Ontario.  You will need to make a brief stop at each one to solve the puzzle.  Included below are six photographs.  Four of these photos were taken at the four rest areas.  The other two are not needed and are only included to make guessing a bit harder!  The photos are in a random order.

 

At each rest stop, identify which photo was taken there.  Write the number next to the photo you identify in the blank next to the rest stop name below.  When you get all four numbers, you are ready to build the coordinates and find the cache.

 

The four rest stops, from west to east, are:

 

    Deadman Pass Rest Area:   A = ___

 

    Charles Reynolds Rest Area:   B = ___

 

    Baker Valley Rest Area:   C = ___

 

    Weatherby Rest Area:   D = ___

 

Note:  The first stop, Deadman Pass, is east of Pendleton after I-84 makes the big climb up the hill.

 

Note:  The last stop, Weatherby, is not well marked at the exit, so be sure to pay attention!  There is a "Rest Area Next Exit" sign in advance, but no mention of a rest area at the actual exit.

 

Note:  The cache is located for easy retrieval after finding the last photo, so be sure to build the coordinates before leaving the rest area.

 

Here are the six photos:

The cache is a green-painted match tube with room for the log only and no travel bugs.

 

Have fun and drive safely!
