Geocache Description:

Final is NOT at the posted coordinates...and you most likely will NOT find a narwhal there either, you will need to solve this puzzle to determine the final location.

For some crazy reason my kids love narwhals & unicorns (probably because of the awesome video!).

 

Have fun, and please NO spoilers.


The narwhal, or narwhale (Monodon monoceros), is a medium-sized toothed whale and possesses a large "tusk" from a protruding canine tooth. It lives year-round in the Arctic waters around Greenland, Canada, and Russia. It is one of two living species of whale in the Monodontidae family, along with the beluga whale. The narwhal males are distinguished by a long, straight, helical tusk, which is an elongated upper left canine. The narwhal was one of many species described by Carolus Linnaeus in his publication Systema Naturae in 1758.

The current population of the narwhal is about 75,000, so narwhals qualify for Near Threatened under the criterion of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN).
