Geocache Description:

Notice: The Cache is not at the posted coordinates.

This is a hard level puzzle cache using a SuDoku. After quickly solving the puzzle, you'll know the correct coordinates to the final cache.


In case you've never heard of SuDoku, it is a daily logic puzzle (like a crossword) and there is only one solution. The object is to insert the numbers in the boxes to satisfy only one condition: each row, column and 3x3 box must contain the digits 1 through 9 exactly once. What could be simpler?

The puzzles are rated for difficulty and range: Easy; Medium; Hard; and Very Hard. This puzzle is my third in a series so it's rated Hard.


The final coordinates to the cache are:
N37 44.ABC
W121 06.DEF

When stashed, the cache contained:
GeoNote
Log Sheet
Pencil
CITO Bag
Reflector Clips
Compass
Team LegGoes Chip #096
Ca Wood Coin Trackable
CHECK SUM IS 53
