Geocache Description:


THIS CACHE IS NOT A PARK & GRAB

Not for most of us anyway. As it mentions in the ATTRIBUTES you will need to bring a special tool. You may possibly find one laying about or come up with a different, creative solution, but it is probably easiest if you come prepared. I know what I'm asking is a bit of a reach wink but I believe in you.

Area can be overgrown during warm months. There is a small pond nearby which often means mosquitoes. NOT suggested at night or after a heavy rain.

Below is a Math puzzle. The puzzle plus the hide arrangement equal the Difficulty rating. The placement equals the Terrain rating. The puzzle is straightforward. No tricks, no Red Herrings (sorry Rehobch). Just solve and go get it with your "special tool required".
