Geocache Description:


****Cache is NOT at posted coordinates*****

 

My son has wanted to make his first hide since the first day we went geocaching. I told him we needed to get a little more experience and maybe we would hide one around his birthday. Well, it’s his birthday and he is ready for his first hide. He has known since he was 2 that he wants to be a paleontologist, so we came up with this puzzle to demonstrate his knowledge.
