Besides Geocaching, I love traveling, viewing art, exploring maps, surfing the Web… So, I’ve put together a puzzle that touches on all those subjects.
Geoglyphs, or Land Art, are large designs produced on the earth, typically using landscape elements, and are usually best, or even only discernable from high in the sky. Mysteriously, many were created long before human flight, some as much as 3000 years ago. Many more are being created by artists in our own time. In order to determine the final coordinates for this cache, you are going to have to “fly over” the sites located at the coordinates listed below and zoom in (or out) to identify the art. Find the design in the list and place its number in front of the coordinates. Not all the items in the design list will be used, but if you are interested, they have all been Geoglyph subjects.
