2y'stassies: On 20 May 2025 we posted a note and an update in the cache description giving advanced warning that, commencing April 2026, we would start archiving the Starting Puzzle Solving series of caches primarily because the load was getting beyond our capacity to maintain.
The series started approximately six years ago in response to requests from geocachers in the North West of Tasmania to help them develop skills in solving puzzles. It provided a much needed focus during the spread of Covid. There have been many positive outcomes, with the most significant being the development of strong and enduring bonds between the founding group We thank those involved for making the program the highlight to date of our geocaching journey. Our satisfaction has been derived from seeing the participants grow in skills and confidence as they supported one another through the program.
The caches that were published were also available to all members of the geocaching community. We thank the very many who have worked their way through the program and the positive feedback we have received. The impact of the program has been much wider than the initial participants.
This cache is in the second group to be archived. Thanks to all who accepted the challenge of the series, solved the puzzles and then found them.
