To find the cache you'll need to solve the Sudoku puzzle above.
If you're unfamiliar with Sudoku you can read all about it
here. Once solved you're going to have what you
need to determine the values for variables A, B, C, D, E, F, G,
H, and J. To solve for each, read down each corresponding column
and write the numbers that you filled in in that column
sequentially. The result is the value for that column. For
example, column A has four empty cells. If you were to fill them
in from top to bottom with 3, 2, 5, and 8, the value for A would
be 3258. Having completed the puzzle use the following to
calculate the final cache location.
To find the correct minutes of latitude make the
following calculation:
| A + B + C + D + F + G + J - 150 |
|
|
| 1000 |
To find the correct minutes of longitude make the
following calculation:
To verify your final coordinates use my Puzzle Cache Verifier.
