Fooled Ya !! Multi-Cache

This cache has been archived.

Pofe: Greetings from Geocaching.com

I have been looking at caches in the area that have been temporarily disabled for a while now and it looks like your cache has been under the weather for some time. While I feel that Geocaching.com should hold the location for you and block other cachers from entering the area around this cache for a reasonable amount of time I don’t think we can do so any longer. Therefore, I have archived this cache. If you haven’t done so already, please pick up any remaining cache bits as soon as possible.

When repairs to this cache are completed and it is time to have it reposted, it will be no problem. Just drop me a note and let me know the GC waypoint number of the cache or better yet, the URL of the cache page. You will still be able to access your cache page just as before by going to your “My Cache Page” and clicking the link of your cache.

I will be more than happy to take a look at your cache again to see if it is still is within the guidelines of the Geocaching.com website for cache placement and posting.

I want to thank you for the time that you have taken to contribute to geocaching in the past and am looking forward to seeing your cache up and running in the future.

Thanks,

Geocache Description:


Okay, this is a multi-stage cache and yes, it does contain a micro in the woods. Keep in mind it is an April Fools day celebration cache. The contents of this cache are all "trick" related and encourage fun. The above coordinates lead you to the parking lot. To find the first cache, you will need to complete the puzzle below. April fools day is a day with a very sketchy history. No one seems to know the true origin, but the nature of the day definitely brings out the creativity in us all. One such “trick” was published by sports illustrated in 1985. According to the writers a new rookie joined the Mets. This joke excited the very gullible Met fans. Your task to learn the speed of Sidd Finch’s famous pitch, then take this number and subtract it from 800 to find the final 3 digits of the Western coordinates. W 41. 35 ___ ___ ___ N 073 27.516
