Deities are whatever shape they want to be, so why not take the shape of canine champions? It is a conceit of humans that to imagine deities as beings just like themselves, or overly concerned with human affairs. There are many noble qualities of dogs which one can observe: they are courageous, loyal, curious, ferocious, open-hearted, protective, clever, joyful, and sometimes full of mischief. Perhaps humans should aspire to live a dog's life, until the day they cross the rainbow bridge to the realms beyond.
The geocache is not at the posted coordinates, so you will need to solve this puzzle to find its location. Use the photos below as your guide to find the missing coordinates; each dog's characteristics were specifically chosen to match its namesake. The formula for solving the missing coordinates is as follows:
N 49° 1 _ . _ _ _ ′ W 123° 0 _ . _ _ _ ′
(Odin) (Heimdall) (Frigg) (Loki) / (Freyja) (Thor) (Freyr) (Tyr)
A coordinates checker has been provided to verify if you have divined these secrets correctly. The Hint provides a more exact description of the hide. The cache itself is a micro-sized container. You will need to bring your own pen or pencil. If humans are around at the time you find it, please use stealth. I do not recommend physically removing the container unless you are going to put it back in the exact same place. And make sure to close it properly again, because water is the mortal enemy of log sheets !
