Geocache Description:

***The above coordinates are a fake! Below you'll find a puzzle to the real coordinates.***

Located in a city park where softball and soccer are played by kids and adults alike.


Morse code is a method for transmitting information, using standardized sequences of short and long marks or pulses — commonly known as "dots" and "dashes" — for the letters, numerals, punctuation and special characters of a message. Originally created for Samuel Morse's electric telegraph in the mid-1830s, it was also extensively used for early radio communication beginning in the 1890s. Excerpt from Wikipedia encyclopedia

Translate the below Morse code into its corresponding character, that character will be a letter in the English alphabet. Then, find the letter's placement within the alphabet, (example A=1, B=2, so on and so forth) these will be the digits you need for the longitude and latitude. Each character is separated by a slash, the red period is NOT part of the Morse code it only separates the minutes. Be careful when hunting for the cache as there may be large amounts of muggle activity.

Items we chose to start off with:
Our own travel bug - Morse Monkey is his name
An 'I cache therefore I am' button
A LIVEStrong bracelet - to support LAF
A HOPE bracelet - to support the National MS Society
A Skinny Raven sticker - for the runners out there
A Five Ten sticker - for the climbers out there

The container is a decon kit so there is not a lot of room for large trade items. Please ensure the lid is on tight! If items in the container are keeping the lid from being closed properly, go ahead and take them out, thank you!
