Su DoKu TB Hideout Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

FluteLlama: Sorry everyone, but I drove past the cache location yesterday, and it is no longer a viable cache location. Sooo, I'm going to ARCHIVE this in hopes that someone else might be able to take over the area. I'm hoping that someone will place a great TB Hotel around here, as the place does scream out for such a thing....it's accessible from both directions of I-80 with easy on ramps & off ramps....plus it's close to Hiway 12 access as well.

Sadness,
FluteLlama

Geocache Description:

This is an easy find & grabcache for Travel Bugs, near a freeway off ramp with easy access back onto the freeway (these apply to both directions on I-80). The container is a Cammie-Painted, Round, Plastic Container which is approximately 10" tall and 5" across. It has a screw-on lid.

The coordinates given above are FAKE ones. To obtain the REAL coordinates for this cache, you will need to solve this EASY Su DoKu puzzle. To do this, grab your pencil (& eraser?) to fill in the blank squares in this grid. The TOP ROW and the LEFT COLUMN are not part of the puzzle itself. They are merely there to aid you in finding which numbers you will then use for the coords. So, please be sure to work the puzzle starting in Row A and Column 1. For the puzzle itself, each ROW must contain the numbers 1 through 9, but only one of each number (no repeated numbers allowed). Each COLUMN must also contain the same (once again, no repetition of numbers). And the same thing goes for each 3X3 BLOCK.



Now that you've completed the Su DoKu puzzle, you are ready to look for the numbers which correspond to the real coordinates for the cache.

E4 = _____ I2 = _____ G8 = _____


G3 = _____ H4 = _____ E3 = _____


N 38 14.[E4] [I2] [G8] W 122 04. [G3] [H4] [E3]

This is an easy find and grab cache for Travel Bugs, near a freeway off ramp with easy access back onto the freeway (these apply to both directions on I-80). The container is a Round, Plastic Container, sprayed with Brown-Rock Paint, which is approximately 10" tall and 5" across. It has a screw-on lid.

I do recommend putting on a pair of MUD SHOES if there has been any rain in the past week. Other than that, no further extra equipment should be required...unless you cache at night, in which case you will need a good flashlight. The immediate area is dirt beside the road; it is easily walked on but not wheelchair or stroller accessible because the dirt is uneven and you have to go down a very tiny incline. It is available 24 hours.

Do not park along the street itself as there is "No Parking" at the curb all along the AutoMall Parkway. However, there is plenty of room to pull off the road onto dirt about 30-50 feet up, and then you can walk back to the cache safely off the road.

If you need any help with the Su DoKu puzzle, by all means email me and ask. I don't bite and will be more than happy to help you.
