Geocache Description:


Welcome Gnomies

The cache is not at the posted coordinates. You must solve the puzzle below to find the final location for this geocache.

Norbert the gnome had always dreamt of building the world's tallest gnome hat. Armed with a blueprint (courtesy of a particularly chatty spider) and a four-foot-tall stack of vibrantly colored leaves, he set to work. He meticulously stitched three leaves together, humming a jaunty tune about mischievous squirrels and four snoring mushrooms.

By nightfall, he'd built a respectable eight inches of hat. Exhausted but determined, Norbert decided to take a quick nap. He woke with a jolt to a chorus of squawks and found a family of nine blue jays nestled amongst his creation, using it as a giant, leafy nest. Sighing, Norbert decided a nine-inch hat would have to do, vowing to invest in some scarecrow feathers next time.

The cache can be found at N 49° 01.ABC' W 122° 28.DEF'.


This cache was hidden as part of the seventh annual Fraser Valley Cache Bash. For more information on this event visit http://fraservalleycachebash.brilang.com/. The theme for FVCB7 is "Colours".
