Geocache Description:


The posted coordinates will not take you to the cache. You must solve the puzzle to obtain the final coordinates.

This is the fourth puzzle that was used in the What's so Puzzling about Geocaching event (GC80QTM) on Dec. 31st in Mission, TX. When solving the puzzles in this series, you will need the following information for certitude: A numeric digit, a color word and three more numeric digits. If there is more than one color word within the puzzle, use the first color and ignore the others.

We had a few difficulties with this puzzle displaying correctly when it posted as a log. I hope all works well on the cache page. Don’t sit on the fence puzzling over this one, just get out there and decipher it. You can message me if you run into difficulties and I'll lend a helping hand, but I won't give you the answer ;-).

Use stealth when searching for this cache as this location may have heavy muggle traffic at times.

Congratulations to 1linden for FTF!!!
