Geocache Description:


Welcome to Fick's Fizzy Puzzle Challenge! I am so excited to finally bring this exciting series to life after many months of hard work! It took quite an investment of time, resources and communication with the local community and reviewer to get this live!


Here is how the Series works:

1.) Please be courteous of ALL geocaching rules and best practices.

2) I will ONLY accept signed logs. I live close enough and drive by here enough that I can check quite frequently on these... so if there is any issue with putting pen on paper, be ready with a picture of the cache, and/or log book. I will not hesitate to delete logs! If there are any other odd scenarios, message me and I will more than likely give permission if I feel you have done the work!

3) It is impossible to enforce..... but I strongly encourage you to not phone-a-friend on these caches. If you have questions, message me or if you have my number don't hesitate to call or text. I'm pretty good about responding. This trail is designed to educate you in advancing difficulties of popular puzzles that are out there..... as well as a few of my own. ;-) 

4) Cito whenever possible! The county appreciates it!

5) Finally, I LOVE hearing about your experiences on each puzzle, so without giving hints (AT ALL) describe your experience with each puzzle!

The situation

1 There are 5 private property caches at houses in five different colors.

2 Each cache is owned by a CO with a different nationality.

3 These five owners drink a certain type of beverage, use a certain type of TOTT, and keep a certain pet.

4 No owners have the same pet, use the same TOTTs, or drink the same beverage.

The question is: Who owns the frog named Signal?

Hints

All the Best,
ZakFick (SoDakZak)
