Geocache Description:

POSTED COORDINATES ARE NOT CORRECT


From the beginning, I thought puzzle caches were only for the intelligent. Yes, you would be accurate in thinking, finding puzzle answers can be frustrating, but it can be done. The main ingredient involved to unscramble puzzle caches is that of persistence allocation of time and quality writing utensils. One must assiduously search out the puzzle’s underlying theme and ignore the red herring interferences.

Be like Sherlock!

A puzzle’s theme may be in the cache title, pictures/ graphs, or entirely gleaned out of a well-formed story itself. Sometimes an answer for the method as to how one is intended to get to the correct solution jumps right out. That rarely happens. More often than not, one must search the internet for tools to unscramble letters, answer sudoku puzzles, etc., in order to unearth various types of solutions.

A sudoku solution?

This is not essential for this individual puzzle. The solution to the coordinates can be obtained from the cache page. What can be most enjoyable about puzzle caches is the self-satisfaction from seeing, “Congratulations” from the geochecker.

At the ending, which is not key to uncovering the solution, is the exploration for the one hiding spot the CO used. With some puzzle caches, determining the solution is the easy part, because some hides can be difficult to locate especially true for micros. If you want a smiley from this puzzle cache, it is very critical to be persistent while searching for the solution by carefully reviewing the caches page.

Simple elementary education.
