THE CACHE IS NOT AT THE POSTED COORDINATES! TO FIND THE CACHE YOU WILL NEED TO SOLVE THE PUZZLE BELOW.
2024 is a leap year. The challenge this year is to find 4 caches on February 29th, to qualify for a souvenir. For local cachers, this could be a problem as many of us have found everything there is to find (or everything we can figure out the coordinates for to find!) We wanted to give you a fighting chance of qualifying for the souvenir, without making it too easy to get FTFs. ;) So we are providing some puzzle caches. They will be released February 28th so you have time to solve them before Leap Day. Once solved, they are all easy finds, available to everyone.
This is a Quote Slide puzzle. There is a saying embedded into the diagram. You can ONLY use the letters above each column in that column. When the saying is complete, you should not have any letters not crossed out. Once you have the saying solved, use the small letters provided for you in the diagram to identify the "real" letters for each box. The "real" letters will help you solve the puzzle. Clear as mud? Ok, then, let's go. You are solving for N 49 5a.bcd W 119 2e.(e+f)gh
As usual, bring your own writing implement.
