Geocache Description:


Some new murals have popped up in Ohio City since I placed the first Majestic Murals of Ohio City. There were also some I didn't include in the first one that previous existed. I meant to put this one out on the one year anniversary of the original's release, but life got in the way. But I finally managed to get it out to once again bring you back here and explore all the wonderful murals this city has to offer. 

Okay now for the nitty gritty. The posted coords are simply for easy parking. This is the main lot for this district. I believe the first 90 min are free and then it's one dollar per each additional hour up to the daily max. There's also side street parking nearby if you can find it. This lot will put you within walking distance of the first 5 stages. The sixth mural will need driven to. I put the stages in order from the furthest away from the cache to the closest to it. You can do them in any order you please and the posted coords actually put you super close to stages 4 and 5. You will need to bring you own writing utensil. Without further ado, below is the info you need to gather. The final format is N 41° 29.EDB W 081° 42.FCA. You can check your coords with the check sum in the hint. Have fun!

 

Stage 1: Just like the first mural of the last multi, this one also introduces you to Cleveland. Called Explore Cleveland and with a dinosaur and the skyline to greet you, it makes an ideal beginning. Take a look at the dino as he jams out to some rock n' roll. He has some scales on him that look like number 3s. Count them and the number you get will be you answer for A.

Stage 2: (5/6/25- There is currently a banner covering the mural. I have altered the clue to get the number you need)Take a brief stroll over by the West Side Market. In the alleyway between it and the Market Garden Restaurant is the Fried Eggs Mural. This colorful and chaotic mural is quite fun to stare at for awhile and make out everything going on. Your mission is to find the hand above an actual door. In between the hand an the door is a single painted digit. This is your answer for B.

Stage 3: Now cross 25th street and head to the square. The By Hand mural should be towering high above you. One of the larger murals in these parts. As you gaze upon its monsterous frame, look at the pair of open hands holding yellow seeds. Count the number of yellow seeds that escaped the hands and are falling to the ground. This is your answer for C.

Stage 4: Meander down 25th and back towards Bridge ave. swing a right and keep going until you see the brick alleyway on the back side of the Glass Bubble Project. Here you will find one of Ohio City's newest murals. This scenic mural makes me want to imagine I'm where it's portraying. On the right side of it, there are two telephone poles painted as trees. The one farthest right has a metal plate with numbers on it. Starting from the top number and working your way down, the third number from the top is your answer to D.

Stage 5: Now make a hop, skip, and leap to the wall of the Market Garden Brewery right behind you. The title of this one is quite charming: This Is What It Sounds Like When I'm Thinking. I really like looking at this one and trying to see all the little things going on here. What you must do is go to the far right of the mural. Find the RTA bus sinking into a hole. Between it and the main castle is a picture of a tower with a lot of windows. Count ONLY the number of windows that ARE NOT filled in. This is your answer for E.

Stage 6: Now in the home stretch, we come to the Cartoon Faces mural. This bizarre work of art hidden back here gives the curious observer a reason to pause. As you admire this last work of art, direct your attention to the thin brick section between the two large windows. Count ONLY the number of FULL heads in this section. It does not matter if you can see a face or not, but no part of the head can be cut off or it doesn't count. This is your answer for F.
