Warning!!! The geocache is not at the posted coordinates!!! Do not look there!!!
Read below to learn how to solve a puzzle and find the actual geocache coordinates.
Good Luck
Puzzle caches take a lot of time to create and maintain, so if you would like me to continue placing quality caches, please don't leave generic logs like "TFTC" or "I found it at 12:00". Logs like this are rude to the cache owner and show a lack of appreciation. Thanks
퍼즐 캐시는 만들고 유지하는 데 많은 시간을 필요로하기 때문에 계속해서 고품질 캐시를 배치하려면 "TFTC"또는 "12:00에 찾았습니다"와 같은 일반 로그를 남기지 마십시오. 이와 같은 로그는 캐시 소유자에게 무례하고 감사의 부족을 보여줍니다. 감사합니다
Hello Geocachers! There are many of us out there who are addicted to the thrill of geocaching, and there are many types of geocaches. I don't know about you, but whenever I find a great geocache I get excited that I was able to figure out where it was hidden. However, with puzzle caches I get to experience that thrill twice, once when I solve the puzzle and then again after I find it.
After setting up many puzzle caches in Korea I have noticed that there are quite a few geocachers who actively avoid finding puzzle caches. Perhaps it is because the puzzle seems difficult, is a tedious extra step to excitement, or just don't know where to start. I want everyone to experience the joy of finding puzzle caches so I have set out to create a new series of easy puzzle caches designed to teach you how to become a puzzle master.
One of the most common types of puzzles in the world is a list puzzle. Most cache coordinates in Korea will be made up of 15 numbers N37° XX.XXX E12X° XX.XXX or 16 numbers if 037° is used. This means that if you see a list of 15 or 16 numbers it is very likely that every item can be associated with a number.
However, a puzzle can also contain less numbers, so if it looks like a list give it a try.
A common place to get numbers for a list is from the periodic table of elements, so if you see a puzzle that is titled after an element or something scientific then it is likely something to do with the periodic table.
For example RbCuHeHgHFeBCeI looks like a cipher, but is really a list of elements that show the virtual coordinates for this cache (Don't look there).
Lists aren't always typed out in text however. Another common type of puzzle is the picture list. This kind of list shows a series of pictures in a row that follow some sort of theme. It is your job to figure out what that theme is.
A good example of a picture list is below. See if you can guess the theme. The results will be the virtual coordinates for this cache. See if you can do it.
Now it's your turn. Put your new skills to the test with the puzzle below. Find the theme and solve the puzzle. You can do it!!
You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.
