TerryerInuksuk: The Love story continues but we have decided to archive the geocache series. We loved this Geoart and have lots of photos, screenshots, and some of the original logbooks, after gathering up the containers. Thanks for visiting! 😊

Geocache Description:

WELCOME TO TERRYER & INUKSUK's GEOART GEOHEART.

This is a mystery cache and the final is NOT AT THE POSTED COORDINATES. You must solve the VALENTINE's puzzle on this cache page to find the container.


Please Note: As of September 13, 2016, this puzzle was reworked, the checker revised, and the final moved about 100 metres south of its original GZ. So if you worked the puzzle prior to Sept. 13, you will have the wrong final co-ordinates. Sorry for any inconvenience. It's in a better spot and will keep everyone safe from poison ivy.

SOLVE THIS VALENTINE's MYSTERY

ROSES ARE _ _ _

VIOLETS ARE BLUE

SUGAR IS SWEET

AND SO ARE _ _ _.

a = 1, b = 2, c = 3, and so on

The missing word in Line One of the Valentine's poem is the North co-ordinate. The missing word in Line Four of the Valentine's poem is the West co-ordinate.

The cache container can be found at :

N44° 26. _ _ _'

W78° 01. _ _ _'

N= r divide by nine, e plus three, d plus one

W= y subtract nineteen, o multiply by zero, u subtract twelve

Terryer and Inuksuk met at an FTF at GZ and then hiked a trail to a geocache called, "Valentine's POM". On our first Valentine's Day together, after getting married at Christmas time, we created this GEOHEART GEOART and hid the caches in minus 25 degree Celsius weather. Some of the mystery cache finals are quick roadside grabs. Others are on a snowmobile/hiking trail that borders a Wildlife Conservation Area.

Good luck and have fun !
