Geocache Description:


THIS GEOCACHE HAS A FIELD PUZZLE. THE ABOVE CO-ORDINATES ARE BOGUS

To download the cartridge click here.

**IMPORTANT!!! To complete this cartridge, you will need:

  • A map with a correct scale FOR PRINTING OFF A COMPUTER: Many online maps pages (such as Google and Yahoo Maps) do not print scales properly. To get a correct scale:
    1. Go to Google Maps
    2. Position 4th Ave & Scarth St at top-right corner of map
    3. Use your computer's 'Print' command (Ctrl+P on Windows, Cmd+P on Mac)
    4. DO NOT CLICK THE 'PRINT' BUTTON!!! Instead, scroll to the bottom (so that the scale is visible) and take a screenshot ('prt sc' on Windows)
    5. Go into a photo editor (e.g. Paint) and import or paste screenshot
    6. Print the screenshot
    This should give you a map with the correct scale. If you have any problems, feel free to message me
  • A ruler
  • A drafting compass
  • A pencil
You may review these instructions at any time while playing the cartridge.**

When playing Click!, you must figure out where the geocache is using triangulation. You must pick three points.

  1. At the first of these points, use your "Triangulator" to see the distance to the cache in meters.
  2. Then, you must convert the distance so that you can use the scale on your map to draw a circle with a radius of the distance (at map scale) around your location.
  3. You must then do this for your second point. Note that the edges of these two circles will intersect at two points.
  4. Next, do this one more time for your third point.

You should now have 3 circles on your map. These should all intersect at or near one point. That is where the final location is. When you get close to it, use the "Triangulator" again. It should give you the final location and unlock code if you are close to it.

PLEASE DO NOT SPIN THE GEOCACHE.

Please align the tape on the lid with the tape on the side of the box when closing.
To lock the cache, shake or tilt it in multiple directions.
If the lid does not fit back on, please take the lid off and "open" it again.
If you think that you have the right solution, but it isn't quite working, give it a shake and try again. If that still doesn't work, message me your solution. If it is correct, I will go check out the cache. Otherwise, I will give you a hint.

If you are stuck, please message me and I will give you a hint.

There are two trinkets (more may be added) in this geocache.
