Geocache Description:


KISS KACHE 2

As the name implies this is the second KISS KACHE placed in this area.  Both require you to solve a puzzle to determine the actual location of the KACHE.   The first Kache was placed to honour the final concert of the rock band KISS at Madison Square Garden in December of 2023.  I guess we can say that this one is placed to celebrate KISS selling their music catalogue for an estimated $300 million in April of 2024!  

There is a First To Find pin as well as numerous guitar picks (three KISS picks and other home made picks) for those who arrive first.  Also for a laugh, I have inculded  photo of the Kache owner and his children dressed as KISS for Halloween many years ago!

So, on to the puzzle!   To find the coordinates you will need to become an expert with google maps.  With the coordinates given below you will find locations from around the world that will help you solve the mini-puzzle for each co-ordinate.  Having a list of the studio albums KISS released will also be important in solving the puzzle.  Wikipedia is a good source for this.   

The final coordinates are at  North  AB°   CD.EFG    West  HJK°   LM.NPQ.
