Geocache Description:


This cache is not at the published coordinates. You will need to solve the puzzle below, where you fill in song lyrics that include Albuquerque. Then put the answer into the checker to get final coordinates.

The cache is in the Placitas Open Space. Despite being 10-ish miles north of Albuquerque, this land is owned by the City of Albuquerque. Map, information, and driving directions can be found here.

This cache requires a hike on moderate terrain at high desert altitude. It is not a park-and-grab. The hike is about a mile from the trailhead/parking area, or two miles round-trip. Mountain bikes, horses, and dogs are allowed.


You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.
