Geocache Description:

DNA can be quite puzzling.

What is DNA? .. An excellent try, but you are going to need a toolbox ..
Your DNA is what makes you uniquely you. It's that double helix that your genes are made of. Your DNA accounts for why you resemble your parents and it distinguishes you from your pet frog and from everybody else.

DNA stands for deoxyribonucleic acid, sometimes called "the molecule of life," as almost all organisms have their genetic material codified as DNA. Since each person’s DNA is unique, "DNA typing" is a valuable tool in connecting suspects to crime scenes.

You can also use the word less scientifically, as in “it’s just not in my DNA to sit through six hours of meetings.”

All you need to do is to gleen the co-ords from the picture below. So don your best white scientist coat and get to decoding some DNA.


While I did try and have this placed near an actual DNA related facility at Adelaide Uni, I was unable to get permission from security / admin, no real surprise there, so final is at a more remote location with other DNA based life forms surrounding GZ, in the forms of barky, twiggy and leafy guardians of the cache.

The cache itself is a moderate sized sistema type container pained blackish, with D.N.A. related swag, 1st to find may take upto 3 items, else standard swap etiquette applies, try and make DNA themed where possible.

While this should not be needed once you figure out how to solve, it is still nice to have a checker for puzzle type caches.
