Geocache Description:


Welcome to another of the Athens street murals. This was painted by artist Mary Lynn Baker, and is found on the Athens Fire Hall. It shows men, women, and children working together to fight a raging fire.

This is a mystery cache. The cache is not located at the posted coordinates, but this is where you will see the mural. 

To solve the puzzle, find the answers to the following questions.

A = How many females do you see in the painting?

B = What is the last digit of the year of the original painting?

C = How many men are wearing hats?

X = What is the total number of people minus 12?

Y = C plus 1?

Z = What is the last digit of the year of the fire minus the number of ropes we see being used?

As an added challenge, but one not needed for the solution, count the buckets in the scene, including the ones where you see only the handles. (How many times did you have to count to be happy with your answer?)

The cache can be found a short drive away at N 44 37 . ABC   W 75 57 . XYZ
