We’ve all pondered this question, and now you have the chance to finally answer it. (PLEASE DISREGARD THE POSTED COORDINATES)
The last in the series of Mindboggler caches. A few tricks to this one, but nothing more difficult than Mindboggler II. The cache is about the size of an altoids tin
HOW + MUCH + WOOD + WOULD + A + WOODCHUCK + CHUCK + IF + A + WOODCHUCK + COULD + CHUCK + WOOD = CRRCHRRMR
The following criteria apply:
(1) O = R
(2) U = I
(3) W = F
(4) CRRCHRRMR = 100,090 cords of wood.
(5) A woodchuck’s cord of wood is not equal to a human’s cord of wood.
(6) All numbers 0-9 are used.
Once you’ve solved this puzzle, substitute the numbers in for the correct letters below to get the coordinates of this cache:
N 61° RU.MFL’
W 149° CI.ROW’
I solved it by hand and so can you! I hope you’ve enjoyed these Mindboggler caches. Now it’s time to move onto another type of cache, or have I already made the transition? My wife already snagged the FTF prize from my wallet, so I scrounged together another FTF prize. I left a Lincoln bill, a where’s george $1, a brand new Groundspeak Travel Bug unopened, and a stack of gold coins for the FTF. Feel free to leave some consolation loot for the second and third finder if you’d like. Oh, and have fun!
