Geocache Description:

A tongue in cheek puzzle offset cache

THE POSTED COORDS ARE NOT FOR THE CACHE, but a good place to quaff a beverage to quench your thirst and grab something to eat either before or after locating this cache. This is a unique spot that we found last year while scoring a find for a Reverse Locationless cache. Sorry, you can’t claim it, you’ll have to find your own. In order to get the “qwoords” for this cache you will have to complete the questions in the following DENSA (not to be confused with MENSA) quiz, and place the answers in the correct positions using your best guess and knowledge of how these things work. No quantum physics here, so have no qualms about being able to qualify. N _ _*_ _._ _ _ W _ _ _*_ _._ _ _ It’s alittle quirky, but you will need no special qualifications to complete these queries. At this spot you will find a large quantity of sticks forming a teepee. (See if you can get the same results on your GPSr that we did.) From the S side of the teepee proceed 115 feet in a SSW to SW direction. There you will find what you are seeking hidden in the quintessential DinoDuo Northern Michigan manner. There are a few different ways to the cache, but during the winter, access to the site would be limited to snowmobiles or snowshoes, and maybe XC skis. During non snow months you could drive quite close to this quiet spot with a high clearance vehicle and to within about ¼ mile with your ordinary cachemobile depending on which route you take. The approach from the W is shorter, but rougher and not recommended for the family car. We have a 4x4 Jeep and only need the 4wheel drive during wet or sloppy conditions. It's a nice walk in from the main road if unsure. Be quick and don’t quit until you quash this quest. DENSA QUIZ
