Geocache Description:

Small camo taped dry bag tied to ~2inch diameter tree. Be sure to roll top of bag to reclose properly. Watch for thorns.

Kakuro puzzles, also known as cross-sums, are not quite as popular as So duko puzzles yet, but my grandma got me addicted to them when I was about 12. Kakuro puzzles resemble crosswords which use numbers instead of words. The aim of the game is to fill all the blank squares in the grid with only the numbers 1-9 so that the numbers you enter add up to the corresponding clues w/out repeating a digit.

For example, a clue of 6 w/ three blanks must be some combination of 1, 2, & 3.
