Geocache Description:


This cache is not at the posted coordinates and is part of a series.

 

The ancient Greeks believed that there were four elements that the universe was made up of: Earth, Water, Air, and Fire. This theory was suggested around 450 BC, and it was later supported and added to by Aristotle.

 

I have created this series of geocaches based on the four elements of the universe. The whole series can be done walking or you can drive. The series should be done in order starting with Earth (#1).

 

Upon finding each geocache, there will be a hint inside. Use these hints to solve the puzzles in the cache descriptions. Write down these hints and your answers somewhere, you will need them to find the future caches. 

 

Earth is located at the posted coordinates to start you off. From there, it's all mystery caches. After finding your first hint in Earth, your second hint in Water, your third hint in Air, and your fourth hint in Fire, head over to the Universe cache posting to read and solve the puzzle and find the final cache. 

 

Happy caching!
