A fairly easy 2 stage cache on Columbia's paths and parks
This cache was hidden by DDR Gopher's co-workers as a goodbye present. It celebrates geocaching and Dance Dance Revolution. But don't worry, all dancing is optional.
Stage one of the cache is located on one of the Columbia paths. It is a quart sized rubbermaid container. Some thorns have been spotted in the vicinity, so long pants are recommended. Stage one contains a puzzle that will guide you to stage two. No calculators, compasses or sextants are required, but a pencil and paper wouldn't hurt. UPDATE: Since some people have asked, we have created some "take home" versions of the puzzle if you can't figure it out in the field. If you do take one, could you let us know how many copies are left, so we can replenish them as needed?
Stage two of the cache is located in a Columbia park (you will probably need to drive there). It is an ammo box, in a thornless area.
