Geocache Description:


This puzzle is inspired by StreetWalkerNZ who released a series of this type of puzzle in Christchurch. I spent many hours learning the techniques for vairous types of slitherlink puzzles and hope you can glean similar enjoyment.

To work out the location of this cache, you need to do the following:

  1. Solve the puzzle below (see helpful hints HERE and the rules about how to solve slitherlink puzzles).
  2. Locate the letters A through to N in the puzzle (I and L are omitted). For each letter, its numeric value is the number of lines around the cell.

The final coordinates are S 37 48.@#$ E 144 59.%&Z, where:

@ = A - B
# = C - D
$ = E + F
% = G + H
& = J + K
Z = M + N

The checksum for A to N is 36.
