Geocache Description:

CACHE IS NOT AT THE POSTED COORD'S!!!!   SOLVE THE PUZZLE TO GET TO THE FINAL!!!!!

Part of the State Police series. Learn a bit about each's state's State Police.

There are 49 states with State Police with Hawaii being the only state in the Union with no state police so named. 

In the United States, a sheriff is generally, but not always, the highest law enforcement officer of a county/parish.

In HAWAII, the State of Hawaii Sheriffs Office, part of the Hawaii Department of Public Safety, serves as the state-wide law enforcement agency.

STATEWIDE POLICING IN HAWAII

Unlike the other 49 states, Hawaii is not a continuous piece of land, but rather an archipelago, consisting primarily of eight major islands. Because of its geography, it is impossible to use roads to get from one local/municipal jurisdiction to another. As a consequence, Hawaii is the only state that does not have a specifically named state police / highway patrol force. Highway patrol functions are instead carried out within each of the states five counties, each of which has its own police force. The Sheriff Division of the Hawaii Department of Public Safety performs the security policing tasks usually undertaken by a dedicated state police force, in addition to providing bailiffs and corrections officers to the judicial apparatus.

The television series Hawaii Five-O featured a fictional state police detective unit in Hawaii. This was not a uniformed police force, but instead functioned more as a State Bureau of Investigation.

 Difficulty is due to the puzzle, hide is normal-type hide.
