Geocache Description:


This is the 13th in a series that I will publish with all my FTFs listed in a Word Search Puzzle and a hidden message to reveal the true coordinates of the cache location as the coords posted are NOT the actual coords.

 

It took me a while to get this one approved because I was in Las Vegas when I hit 800 and submitted the cache. However, apprarently it was within 528ft of another mystery cache that I didn't have the coords for, so I had to wait until I got home to recalculate the coords and re-submit.

 

As most of you know, I love going out for FTFs and running into other fellow cachers. The thrill of the pursuit and finding a blank log feels great. And I do it most hours of the day and night. But, it's the camaraderie and friendships that develop that help add value/joy to this hobby/sport. I try to be at my caches when they're published, if I can, but since coming up with a solution and finding the cache may take a while, you will probably not see me at this one. But I hope to run into you out in the field or at an event. These are tedious word searches because I allow letters, numbers and special symbols and especially because of the number of caches in the word search list (50 total), it gets a little crowded when searching for the solution. Some of you that have done my word search puzzles before will notice that I did NOT include the "GC"; part of the Cache Code in order to make it a little bit more difficult. Hence, the difficult rating.

These represent my FTFs 751 through 800. Plus, make sure you include all letters, numbers and symbols in the hidden message as it will prove invaluable when solving the problem.Its a typical NW hide, nothing special. I just wanted to hurry up and get it out there because I'm halfway finished finding my next 50 FTFs while I am down in Las Vegas, NV. The difficulty is from the working of the puzzle. I've added a GeoChecker so you can make sure you've solved it before running out into the field blind. I've decided to submit these word search puzzles in groups of 50, so it's going to be a while until the next one is published. Maybe not in this next case. Swag includes some glow sticks. There is a $$ prize for FTF.

 

 

Congrats to 1NASCARNUT for FTF Honors!!
