You will be seeking a see-through Lock-n-Lock. The terrain will vary depending on recent weather/rainfall. You may need to get your feet wet. Please exercise due caution in attempting this cache. It is not recommended that you seek it in icy conditions. Both the puzzle and the hide are rated at 3 stars of difficulty.

Over the last few months in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and especially New York times have been tough. But there are still moments to celebrate and this puzzle cache is placed in honor Captainmath, who has at least a couple of reasons to be celebrating this summer. I am happy to be able to place this cache in honor of such a great friend to the Tri-State area. Throughout the pandemic with the help of "zoom" he's been steadfast in helping entertain and educate his fellow cachers (whether across the state or just down the street) with nary a cross word.

Please reserve the FTF for the honoree. Many thanks to 0;)Angel for placing and maintaining this cache for me.
