Geocache Description:


The cache is not at the posted coordinates, but the coordinates do work for parking. Solve the puzzle below to receive the coordinates.

 

Like last time, this puzzle also starts with a story. This time though, it will be a smaller story featuring Otta’s Uncle George. 

 

George was a writer working on an idea for his next story. As he was thinking, he conceived of a story he called The Oddest E. “It will be a story about a letter who goes on a quest to…well, I’ll figure out that detail later.” he said.  With that he started writing:

 

E was not a brave letter, nor was he bold. Despite that, E was ready to start his quest. This was to be the beginning of a grand

 

As he began writing he hit a roadblock. “beginning of a grand…journey?” George thought to himself. “No that’s not it. How about adventure?” he considered. “No that’s not it either. Wait! I got it!” he exclaimed. George then continued writing.

 

Once you figure out the word George decided on, you can type it into the checker. If you are right you will be given the coordinates for this cache.

 


You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.
