Geocache Description:

The cache is not at the posted coordinates.



Please solve the puzzle below.






Please determine which letters, from the words given below, are on each of the 4 dice:

Die 1 (Z), Die 2 (E), Die 3 (D), and Die 4 (S).

FLAP LOAD TUBE ZERO

HARE PAIL WINK ZIGS






Once you have figured out which letters go on which die, place the 6 letters in alphabetical order. The next step is to determine the letter values: A = 1, Z = 26. (for example - if the first alphabetical letter on die 1 was a D, then the value for die 1 letter 1 would be 4)


The cache can be found in winter at N 45 QR.STU W 075 VW.XYZ..

Q = die 3 letter 4 - die 2 letter 5
R = die 4 letter 2 - die 4 letter 1
S = die 1 letter 4 - die 3 letter 1 - die 3 letter 3
T = die 1 letter 6 - die 2 letter 5
U = die 3 letter 6 - die 3 letter 4
V = die 4 letter 6 - die 4 letter 4
W = die 1 letter 5 - die 2 letter 4 - die 2 letter 2
X = die 3 letter 3 - die 2 letter 1
Y = die 3 letter 4 - die 1 letter 3
Z = die 3 letter 5 - die 4 letter 5 - die 1 letter 1


Have fun and Happy Caching













I was planning to archive this cache on DECEMBER 31, 2020. However, because of the Covid, I have been asked to extend the date the 2014 puzzles will be archived. So, the new date that the 2014 puzzles will be archived will be July 16, 2022. Thanks for your interest in this cache. Cheers and happy caching, buddysally.
