Geocache Description:

AnyMules


NB: the container cannot be found at the listed co-ordinates

AnyMules is a regular attendee at events, and has found some 3000+ caches since his name was listed in April 2015. Like KiwiOzzie right next to him, an amazing achievement. This includes a 500 day streak, achieved on Sunday 18 September 2016; completion of his "Finds by Hidden Date" calendar; completion of his first D/T loop on 7 August 2016 and his second D/T loop on 25 December 2016. He is also diligent in reporting much unloved caches, allowing for the map to be cleaned for future placements. A responsible geocacher, for the win!

...and did you know... he once belonged to a team called 'SA Complex Sized Punk Goat Winery Door Hole'. Yep.

Moreover, he has hidden 10 mystery caches to date, including two Mexican Maths Puzzles inspired by many trips over a certain border. Consequently, it was fitting to make this one a mystery cache, too.

The puzzle is not difficult. Just find the right answer to the multiple choice question below, and you'll find the co-ordinates, and after a little search, find the cache. Easy, huh? ;)

Q: Why would AnyMules cross a road?
(Especially one such as this??)

A: 1) To get to the other side. Of course.

A: 2) To get to the cache.

A: 3) Ask the mule!

A: 4) Why not?

A: 5) 42.

NB: the ants with yellow/red bands across their middle at GZ look scary, but they are relatively harmless Banded Sugar Ants. They can't sting you. They can still give you a bit of a pinch, and they can spray formic acid at you which might give you a bit of a harmless (but itchy) skin reaction.
