Geocache Description:


This cache is NOT at the posted coordinates

Signal needs your help!!!

Signal, the beloved geocaching mascot was recently spotted in the Whitby area to visit family for World Frog Day on March 20th.   While visiting some frog family members, Signal learned that one of the cousins has been kidnapped and is being held somewhere in Whitby.  Signal desperately needs the help of the geocaching community to find the location and reunite these cousins. 

Signal was given some cryptic messages from the kidnappers that will help you solve the north coordinate for the cousin’s location.   

Signal also received this photo, cut up into jigsaw puzzle pieces to show what will happen to the cousin unless the community unites to help track down the west location.    Signal wants to thank local geocacher Snezzy for providing this vital clue and sharing the photo.
