Geocache Description:


This geocache IS NOT at the posted coordinates.  Please do not go there as you could be in the middle of a field!

Solve the puzzle below to get the final coordinates to the cache. 

It’s 2025 and geocachers all over the world are celebrating 25 years of geocaching.  In honour of that and the many events being held in Southwest Ontario, Team2025 created this geo-art!

You will find a variety of puzzles ranging from multiple choice to real brain twisters.

Caches are located along county roads where active farming is happening.  Please pull well off the road, use your 4-way flashers as you see fit and yield to any farm machinery you may encounter.

All containers, with the exception of a few regular sized containers are centrifuge (Lisa) tubes zip tied in place and should be easy to find. Have fun!

No night caching please!
