Geocache Description:

The cache is NOT at the coordinates listed above. You must figure out the coordinates from the puzzle below.

Yet another in what seems to be an ongoing series by local cachers.

Here are some caches that I haven't yet seen. I hadn't even heard of most of them before. I guess I might have to go find them now:

GCVGPP Cool Rock by Over Hill Over Dale
GCRZF7 Kooper's Kaper 2, the sequel by Bear n Grin it
GCTY5F In the Dark by piscatore
GC1JGNV Christmas Cache 2008 by GPSanta
GC1CTFE Swedish & Fish by runeshower
GCGKZ5 Contra Costa by TeamAlamo
GC62C3 Four Corners by Trail Gypsy


It has come to my attention that impossible puzzles are now to be rated at 3.5 stars. Sort of like how impossible micros are rated at 1.5 stars. When I came up with this idea, I decided it was truly evil and was prepared to rate it at 4.5 stars, but it's probably a lot easier than some of the other puzzles around here, and it doesn't require any special knowledge or software.

As of October 2013, the cache is small jar covered in camo tape, covered by a few broken tree limbs. The cache was originally a bright neon colored dolphin, hanging about five feet off the ground with a FTF token inside for the first visitor. If you have solved the puzzle, I wanted to make sure that you have no trouble finding the cache once you get to the coordinates. On the other hand, I'm not sure how easy it will be to get to the coordinates. I followed what appeared to be a road to the cache site, but when I asked the driver of a truck on the road whether the road led to Quimby, he said, no, he had just created this road!
