Geocache Description:

The above coordinates are made up numbers. The cache is not located there. This is a three stage cache. Step one is to solve the series of puzzles below. Those coordinates will lead you to step two, a micro container. Inside that container will be the coordinates needed to locate the final cache box.

Chef Riley runs a cooking school. Yesterday, he instructed six students in his advanced class to bake a cake for the local animal shelter fund raiser night. After tasting each creation in turn, he advised the students that they all did an excellent job and commented on the animal that adorned each cake. Can you determine the order in which each student's cake was evaluated, as well as the animal that he or she used ?
  1. Chef Riley sampled Kelly's cake immediately before trying the cake that had a salmon on top, which he sampled immediately before Sean's concoction ( which wasn't the sixth item to be tasted ).
  2. The cake that had a red deer was tasted at some point before the one that had the bull, and Riley graded Erin's cake before, but not immediately before , Shannon's ; all four cakes received a B.
  3. The cake with the ornamental bird was tasted immediately after Patrick's , which was graded immediately after Kyle's.
  4. Erin's cake and the creation made by the student who used a horse for decoration were tasted consecutively, in some order.
  5. Shannon and the baker who used the ornamental bird both hope to open their own bakeries upon graduation.
