How Geocaching Works

Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Geocache Description:


The cache is NOT at the posted coordinates. You have to solve the puzzle below to get the actual coordinates.


This puzzle is set up primarily for those who may be new to puzzle caches or those who may be new to QR codes although everyone is welcome to solve the puzzle and find the cache.

The image below is that of a QR code. To determine the final coordinates of the cache you'll need to scan the code to reveal the coordinates. If you have a smart phone there are many apps that will do this for you. Many bar code reader apps will also read a QR code. For those without a smart phone you can also determine the final coordinates by downloading the image to your computer then use an online QR decoder to read the QR code.


The difficulty rating applies to the puzzle while the terrain rating apples to the hide. Special skills and/or equipment will likely be required. Please be sure to replace the cache in the same place it was retrieved from (or higher!).

An additional bonus is that one of California's oldest geocaches, Yuba City (GC5F) is not too far away from the final coordinates.

Please bring a pen or pencil. $ for FTF.

Congrats to retiredprof for FTF!
