Geocache Description:


Sherman County is a county located in the U.S. state of Nebraska. As of the 2010 census, the population was 3,152.   Its county seat is Loup City.  

In the Nebraska license plate system, Sherman County is represented by the prefix 56 (it had the fifty-sixth-largest number of vehicles registered in the county when the license plate system was established in 1922).

Sherman County was formed in 1871. It was named after General William Tecumseh Sherman.

 

You must complete the sudoku puzzle below and replace the letters with the number in that box to get the actual coordinates to the cache.

Sudoku Directions

The puzzle is a 9×9 grid, made up of 3×3 subgrids called "regions". Some cells already contain numerals, known as "givens". The goal is to fill in the empty cells, one numeral in each, so that each column, row, and region contains the numerals 1–9 exactly once. Each numeral in the solution therefore occurs only once in each of three "directions" or "scopes", hence the "single numbers" implied by the puzzle's name.

 

So simply put: The objective of the game is to fill all the blank squares in a game with the correct numbers. There are three very simple constraints to follow.

  • Every row of 9 numbers must include all digits 1 through 9 in any order
  • Every column of 9 numbers must include all digits 1 through 9 in any order
  • Every 3 by 3 subsection of the 9 by 9 square must include all digits 1 through 9
