Cache is NOT at the Posted Coordinates.
Like most geocaching puzzles this isn’t an original idea. See https://coord.info/GC5HFTZ and the series by charliewhiskey, as one of my inspirations.
I thought I would hide a few puzzle caches that could teach new cachers about some of the more common types of puzzles. I’m doing this, NOT because I’m a great puzzle solver. Quite the opposite! I struggle with most puzzles greater than 2 difficulty and I often must ask for a hint. Although this website https://www.geocachingtoolbox.com recommended by butcherandswimmer does help.
But I have seen many of the more common and easy puzzle types and I want to encourage new cachers to NOT automatically avoid all caches with the “?” icon. I’m also currently out of original puzzle ideas, so this will be easy for me. 😉 And easy for you! 😊
Puzzle Type #4 – Google is Your Friend.
Pfalstad use to have a puzzle hints sheet that I have lost track of years ago, but I remember that it listed one of the most helpful hints to solving puzzles: "Google is Your Friend" and that you should "Google Everything". This may be the best universal puzzle solving advice, since a wide variety of geocaching puzzles are based on keys that can only be found using Google or a competitive search engine.
Typically the cache description will have a list of keywords, titles or phrases, but a series of pictures is also frequently used. In the case of pictures, you will first have to identify what the keywords or names are associated with the images. Whatever information is presented on the cache page, if you can key it, or better yet cut and paste it into Google Search, you might just find that the ligh bulb goes on, for how to solve the puzzle.
Remember that even after you Google and find a web source that matches you keywords, titles or phrases you still need to Identify the key that will allow you to convert to coordinate numbers. Some of the simpler keys that are used include: list order numbers, months, days, years. If multiple numbers are given in the key usually the last number is all you need, but not always. Really any number or numbers associated with whatever you have Googled could be the key.
