Geocache Description:


Welcome to the Fall Fest 2025 81 Grid Series

This series will offer a variety of DT ratings throughout Brantford and Brant County - be prepared for almost anything. They are being placed for GCAX1X1 Fall Fest 2025, but are not part of the GeoChallenge and are NOT challenge caches. Some will be park and grabs, while others will involve longer hikes or TOTTs. Please check the descriptions and attributes for each cache and do not attempt anything outside of your comfort zone. These caches are being placed to appeal to a wide variety of caching levels and abilities. 

The cache IS NOT at the posted coordinates. You will need to solve a puzzle to locate the container and sign the log.

The cache is a black bison tube with only a logbook inside. Please bring a writing instrument to sign the log, and replace as found.

The Puzzle

 

To find the final coordinates, you’ll need to solve the puzzle below. For the purpose of this puzzle, you are looking at the words in the MIDDLE column. Word 1 is given to you at the start, Word 2 will be the first word you solve.

You can find the cache at:📍 N 43° 10.ABC W 080° 17.DEF where:

A = Word Seven, Digital Root (summed to one digit)
B = Word Two, Second Letter (A=1, B=2, etc)
C = Word Three, First Letter (A=1, B=2, etc) MINUS One
D = Word Five, Digital Root (summed to one digit) DIVIDED by three
E = Word Seven, Fourth Letter (A=1, B=2, etc) TIMES two
F = Word Six, Digital Root (summed to one digit)

Cache difficulty rating is based on puzzle AND the hide. Please replace the cache as found.
