Geocache Description:


7 Little Monkeys (in alphabetical order) came out to Alouette to go camping: Austen, Carson, Collin, Isaac, Jesse, Nolan and Sam. It was too cold to swim, so they went for a hike. You should too! One Little Monkey (who is also a Little Bugger) said, “Mommy, we should put a question mark one in here too!”. So… this cache is not at the posted coordinates. It is a great place to park and start your quest.


To get the coordinates, simply use logic with the clues provided to determine the order of the Little Monkeys, aged 4-10 from oldest to youngest. Once you are done getting them in order, use the FIRST initial of each Monkeys’ name in order, in the certitude. If you are correct, you will get the location of the cache. As always, coordinates are “jumpy like a monkey” so use the hint in the certitude to help you out… I like my puzzles found, so if you need help, please feel free to ask!



You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.

What order are the 7 Little Monkeys born from oldest to youngest:

  • Jesse is 2nd born in the year, but is 4 years younger than the eldest

  • Sam started kindergarten after Austen, but 3 years before Nolan (who starts this fall!)

  • Nolan, Austen & Collin are brothers - Austen is double Nolan’s age and half as much younger than Collin

  • Collin’s birthday comes first in the calendar year

  • Austen is born the middle of all the boys

  • Isaac was born on Valentine’s Day, 3 days before Sam, but 2 years earlier

  • Austen is born VERY strong with the FORCE. It is always with him.

  • Carson and Isaac are the same age, born 2 months apart!

  • Nolan is 4 and born last in the calendar year

  • Sam & Carson (brothers) were both born on the 17th of their months, but Sam 2 months earlier in the calendar year
