Geocache Description:

The above coordinates are bogus.

Caching slows down a bit in Alaska during the Winter and sometimes people need something to think about before they put on multi layers of clothes and venture out into the fridged darkness that is Alaska. The Anchorage Daily News started carrying the Sodoku puzzles in the paper last year and Klondike Kate got hooked! So to try to satisfy the puzzle loving cachers…and you know who you are (Scobey, POWMIA, etc) here is our attempt to introduce this brain burner to the caching community.

The object is to solve for ABCDE & F in the coordinates of:

61 0A.0BC
150 00.DEF

Sudoku ( sudoku), sometimes spelled Su Doku, is a logic-based placement puzzle. The aim of the puzzle is to enter a numerical digit from 1 through 9 in each cell of a 9×9 grid made up of 3×3 subgrids (called "regions"), starting with various digits given in some cells (the "givens"). Each row, column, and region must contain only one instance of each numeral. Completing the puzzle requires patience and logical ability. Although first published in a U. S. puzzle magazine in 1979, Sudoku initially caught on in Japan in 1986 and attained international popularity in 2005.
