-THIS CACHE IS NOT AT THE POSTED COORDINATES-
This is a kid-friendly figure skating-related geocaching puzzle, with the final location just outside of downtown Palmer. The puzzle should be able to be completed entirely from home, with no physical tasks at the cache site. The final location is located about 200 feet off of a sidewalk, and is close to youth recreation areas and popular dog walking spots.
You will need to identify and analyze different jumps and skills in figure skating from eachother, using this to gain the final coordinates.
The final coordinates will be N61 X.ABC W149 Z.DEF
X and Z will require analyzing the ice pattern, that is the path take by the skates on the ice, of certain jumps:
- X
- Z
Loop = 6
Toe Loop = 35
To find A-F, match these photos with the correct skill and equivalent number.
