This cache used to be part of the 2020 Jacksonville Geocaching Challenge series. We have kept it around for your caching pleasure!
Betz-Tiger Point Preserve is open during daylight hours. This geocache will require an approximate 2.5 mile round-trip hike to reach the end of the main trail. This trail is graded all the way until a few feet from the final location, so there is very easy access for bikes and strollers.
At the posted coordinates you will notice a parking area that you probably wish you could have driven your car to. You will need to make some EASY observations once you reach the posted coordinates to collect the information required to calculate the final cache location, which is very close by.
You are also encouraged to take a walk out on the nearby boardwalk while you run the numbers. Not only is the view amazing, but the yellow flies will leave you alone as long as you are standing out over the water soaking in the view.
A = How many yellow diamonds do you see?
B = How many handicap parking spots are available?
C = How many paved regular parking spots are available?
D = How many individual rectangles are contained within the crosswalk?
E = How many legs are on the nearby gazebo?
ABCDE Checksum = 13
Final Coordinates - N 30 29. [B+E] [A+B+E] [C*D] W 081 29. [B*D] [B+E] [E-A]
You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.
