"Welcome to
Placerville" the sign reads. Many of us have seen this sign
almost daily. Yet have you ever wondered who was welcoming
you? Probably not. But none-the-less, by the time you have
completed this two stage cache you will have gained new
insights into those offering this up-till-now anonymous
welcoming.
First, print out the attached clue sheet! Once you have printed
it out make sure you take it with you to the first stage
coordinates listed above.
Once you arrive at the first stage coordinates you will need to
determine the coordinates to the second/final stage by correctly
solving the clues on your clue sheet. All of the clues can be
solved using an object you will find at the first stage
coordinates, and the key on the clue sheet. These clues may be (but
are not always) a play on words, and were intended to be a little
challenging, sometimes a little obscure, somewhat humorous, and
mostly fun.
Your orientation to the object you will find at the first stage
is critical if you are to solve the clues correctly. Your
orientation to the object is correct if there is a "K of C" in
front of you and a "K.F.C." behind you.
When successfully completed each clue will have a single digit
numerical answer. These digits when placed into the corresponding
missing coordinates on the clue sheet will give you the coordinates
to the second/final cache site.
I had a lot of fun thinking up this cache and hope you have as
much fun solving it.
