Geocache Description:


This cache is not at the posted coordinates.




***************************************

PLEASE MAKE SURE THE CACHES ARE CLOSED TIGHT!

***************************************


This geo-art consists of twenty-nine Unknown/Mystery caches which each have a puzzle to solve in order to determine the coordinates of the final location (a container with log book and in most cases some swag). Boots may be needed during certain times of the year when it's rainy. I will be doing regular maintenance so please do not replace any missing caches. Log replacements, on the other hand are fine and most appreciated. Have fun!

The puzzle...



Caches with load and loads of favorite points, we all love them. They provide an easy and quick way to identify good caches and picturesque locations. They come in specially handy while visiting new places. Have you ever wondered about the caches with the most favorite points in the world? Well I have, and being the nice person I am I'll save you some research and tell you all about them here. Of course this is all subject to change but as of September (09) 2015 the rankings listed here are accurate.

The top dog on the list with 6,000+ favorite points, is a little (literally) cache in Berlin, Germany hidden June (06) 2007.
Lego - einer ist zuviel (Lego - one is too much)

Second on the list with 4,500+ favorite points, is a spooky cache in Hessen, Germany hidden March (03) 2007.
Geist des Hagen (Spirit of Hagen)

So the Germans really like to geocache and they also love to dole out favorite points because the top eight caches in the world are there. Rather than go through all those I'm going to move on to the United States.

Tops in the US with 3,000+ favorite points, is a muggle-proof cache with a special icon in Seattle, Washington hidden July (07) 2004. This is a cache that everyone should aspire to visit one day, I know I do.
Geocaching Headquarters

Following that are a handful of Headquarters' owned caches. Next on the list not put out by HQ with 1,500+ favorite points, is the oldest active cache in the world located in Colby, Kansas hidden May (05) 2000. This is one of a few remaining caches placed during the first month of the game..
Mingo

Closer to home things get a little contested. The top two caches in Florida are within 50 points of each other so chances are they won't be in the same order by the time you read this. With 850+ favorite points, is a magical virtual cache in Orlando, FL hidden July (07) 2001.
Magic Kingdom

Closing in fast with 800+ favorite points, is a large green cache in Merritt Island, FL hidden September (09) 2007.
