Geocache Description:


Love, Murray

The cache is not at the posted coordinates.

Solve the following field puzzle to learn the true cache location.

This cache is part of the Project Atoz series – click here for more information. It replaces Legendary, but has the same key word to solve Project Atoz.

Murray was incorporated in 1903 and has been called the Hub of Salt Lake County because of its central location in the valley. Unlike most of its neighboring communities, Murray operates its own police, fire, power, water, library,  parks and recreation departments, and has its own school district. Murray has a rich history and the residents enjoy a strong sense of community.

This is a field puzzle of approximately 2 miles round trip to visit various locations near the heart of Murray. However, after the first three locations, you may decide to return to your car and drive to the other locations, which shortens it to less than ½ mile of walking.

The puzzle is intended to be run on a smartphone and uses the CellStar application authored by computer science professor lesdubois and written specifically for geocaching puzzles. Seawind generously gave of his time to build the puzzle for us using the app. It can be started from the link included below.  It is sort of a cross between an Adventure Lab and a Letterbox.

You may park in any of the nearby parking lots near the posted coordinates. The app will guide you on a tour of the park and the heart of Murray and will ask you to answer questions along the way. When you have completed all of the questions, you will be given a solution phrase which you can pass automatically to the Checker. The Checker will then provide the coordinates of the geocache.

Start at the posted coordinates and click the link to begin your tour. Please let us know if you encounter any problems or if any of the question sites may have changed. Enjoy the puzzle and the cache!

First time using the CellStar app?  These pointers might help:

Your answers are saved automatically for each question.  If you start a puzzle and don't have time to finish it, you can resume it later - be sure to remember your keyword!

To answer a question, tap in the answer box, enter your answer and tap 'Submit'.  If you answer incorrectly, you can try again.  Tap the 'X' in the answer box to clear your incorrect answer.

Some of the puzzles have questions that can be skipped if you are unable to answer.  This is indicated at the end of questions that can be skipped.  Entering 'Skip' for such a question allows you to continue.  But...you are limited to the number of skips you can use, so make sure you can't answer first!  If you skip a question and can later answer it, just enter the answer, and you can then skip a different question if necessary.

Once you have answered question(s), you can move backward and forward through them.  Swipe left-to-right to reverse or right-to-left to move forward.  You can also click the arrow symbols to navigate answered questions.  You can't advance past an unanswered question.

When you have answered all the questions, you will be provided with a solution phrase.  Click 'OK' and the app will copy the phrase for you and move you to the Checker for the puzzle.  Paste the phrase, click 'Certify' and you will receive the coordinates of the cache!  To paste on a smartphone, tap the answer box twice or press and hold your finger in the box.
