Geocache Description:


 Cache is NOT at posted coordinates! Posted coords are for the parking lot/trial head!

                                            Help your self to a nice slice of chess pie!

                                                    

Difficult chess puzzle! I'm not sure what the rating is though.

White to move - Mate in eleven. Each square on the board represents a possible set of coordinates to the cache. The last move in the checkmating sequence is the coordinates for the cache.

White to move

Once you solve the puzzle select the square that the final move was played on. If you have the correct answer it should be obvious (Checkmate in 11 moves) but if it's not so clear, feel free to message me, with what you think is the answer. Technically you can cheat, by going to every possible coordinate set below; but there are sixty-four possibilities! Good luck and happy hunting!
