The coordinates posted above are not the actual location of this cache.

There are three-parts to the Surrey Sudoku Search. This is the 'MEDIUM' sudoku puzzle/cache. There is also a 'EASY ' and a 'HARD' difficulty puzzle/cache.

You will have to solve the sudoku puzzle (below) for each cache to locate the three cooresponding caches. For further information about sudoku, have a look at this website - Sudoku. Your goal is to have each row, column and 3x3 box contain the digits 1 through 9 only once. It's more difficult than it sounds!

Once you think you've solved the sudoku above, this small cache can be found at N49 A0.BCD and W122 EF.GHI where (letter=[row #, column #] - the first row is at the top, the first column is at the left):

  • A=[3rd, 9th]
  • B=[7th, 5th]
  • C=[5th, 1st]
  • D=[3rd, 7th]
  • E=[5th, 8th]
  • F=[6th, 1st]
  • G=[9th, 4th]
  • H=[2nd, 2nd]
  • I=[3rd, 7th]

The container is a small cammoed cylinder (about 5" tall by 2" diameter), which contains a log book, pencil, and the final cache clue (2 numbers). Not alot of room for trading, but if you'd like to go ahead with small items.
