Geocache Description:


Wise men speak because they have something to say; fools because the have to say something. 

~Plato

 

Fill in the grid with all the words in the word list. The words from each group start on their matching number inside the grid. They will read in all directions – Forward, Backward, Up, Down and Diagonally. Words from different groups can sometimes overlap; therefore, some letters can be used more than once. I have started the puzzle for you. When the puzzle is completed, all the squares will be filled.

After you have completed filling the grid, you will need to find the numerical value of the letters in the colored boxes. Once you have done that and a little math, you will have the final coordinates in hand.

 

 

 

The final coordinates can be found at:   N 45 30.ABC   W 122 51.DEF

ABC= (PINK + GRAY) + 21

DEF= (YELLOW + GREEN) / 2
