Contract Bridge Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

Serrabou: The paperwork I filled out to place this cache was for a 3-year stay, so I'm 2 years late in taking it down. Sky Meadows is no longer the caching destination it used to be when I placed this. I enjoyed reading the logs of the few who were able to sign in on this one. I took away the ammo can and will find a new way to use it.

Puzzle: count high card points per suit for N & W hands.

When I was very young, my parents taught me how to play bridge. My hands were too small to hold all 13 cards, so I would spread my hand out behind the sofa and evaluate it to prepare for bidding.
