Another Puzzling Puzzler for Non-Puzzlers! Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

TeamBMZ (bmzdaddy): The flood got to this one. I found the old container about 35’ away but it needs a good cleanup now. Most of the cover has floated away so I’ll have to do something different here. Thanks to all that figured out my incredibly “hard” puzzle.

Geocache Description:

Cache is hidden on the backside of Mallard Lake located in the Creve Coeur Lake Park.  The location will give you views of the lake that most miss.  There are some spectacur sunsets to be seen from this trail.


Cache is hidden in a very vegetaion rich area just as short hop off the trail.  I have had two other cache containers of different sort go missing from this area.  If this one goes missing I'll have to turn the area over to Dr. Evil.  This one is a simple hide using at container that we picked up at the beach this year.  Micro only, so BYO writin stick.  Please be sure to place the cache back exactly as it was found to ensure it doesn't crawl off.

 

How to solve the puzzle:

I do not enjoy most puzzle caches.  There have been some that I spent entiring too much time trying to solve only to come up with a headache and blue upside down smile.  This Puzzling cache is desgined for those that do not enjoy puzzles as much but still need to find some for all those challenge caches out there.  To that end here is this VERY DIFFICULT puzzle to solve...

Add .001 to the North coords.

Add .001 to the West coords.

Calculators are allowed.  Now that you are done laughing at my VERY DIFFICULT puzzle, go get it!  Happy Caching!

Congrats to Bluedaisy, Trekto and N0WNV on the FTF!
