Current Goal

A lateral thinking puzzle comprised of three rings and three loops. The idea is to separate them and then put them back together. This puzzle is considered 'difficult'. Once you solve it, pass it on. UPDATED GOAL: These puzzles would like to make it to any cache near Lehi, Utah, to meet DOUGC who has released some other puzzle bugs.

About This Item

Trilateral

I found these puzzles from a British company called The Mad Cow Company, and actually purchased them from an importer in Colorado called A Bit of Britain. Both are family owned and were very nice. I have been conversing with them through email letting them know my progress in solving their puzzles. I plan to buy them all and release them all as Travel Bugs after I solve them. I expect to release...

  • Bilateral
  • Trilateral
  • Quadrilateral
Half the fun of these lateral thinking type of puzzles is to pass them on and see how your friends do. I thought this would be a good venue for just that. So, do your best to solve the puzzle, and put it back in its original state (sometimes the more difficult trick) and pass it on to the next geocacher. Have fun, and let me know how you did.

Found the puzzle in a brand-new cache this morning. Might be in Utah in early July, but if I can send it eastward before then, will do.

🙂 Found it! We tried to move it to a cache in Nevada today but we couldn't decide where to leave it - all the caches we went to were stuffed FULL! It got dark quick on us and DARN COLD up there, so we headed home! We'll place it some where around Sacramento soon...
