Geocache Description:

* * * Coordinates listed are not for the final cache. See below for more details * * *

June 2007: I hate to have anyone spend time on one of my longer caches and go away without a smilie. Therefore, until I get a chance to replace the missing game pieces, I'm going to provide the coordinates to the final cache. N 39º 20.006, W 084º 23.378

This cache is based on the classic board game Battleship. I have setup a 4x4 grid in Keehner park and placed three ships: a battleship (4 spaces), a submarine (3 spaces), and a destroyer (2 spaces). The grid looks like this:

. 1 2 3 4
A * * * *
B * * * *
C * * * *
D * * * *

Each marker is a rock hidden near the base of a tree. On the bottom of the rock you will be told if the location is a hit or a miss. If it is a miss, you get no further information. If it is a hit, you will get one of the numbers for the coordinates to the final cache. Once you have hit all of the ships, you should have all of the information to the final cache. The coordinates are in the format: N39 AB.CDE W084 VW.XYZ.
