The cache is not at the coordinates listed! These coordinates take you to the parking area for this park.



This cache is trying to get all 50 states of quarters to go through it. But I will also keep track of different year quarters that go through it. So bring a couple quarters to trade and a pen/pencil to sign the log! And please log the year or quarter type of the quarters you are trading.



The cache is a small metal container well hidden somewhere in the park. Here is where the cache is located:

N36 02.ABC

W095 48.DEB



The clues to filling in ABCD and E are all inside the park.



CLUES:

A = The number of solid GREEN letters above a green line.

B = First number on a small rectangle sign on the fence.

C = SEE BELOW

D = The number of letters in the FIRST NAME of the person who Kate S. loves. (awe.. how sweet)

E = number of steering wheels for kids to practice driving.





C = There is a big square area of the park (one side of the square is the river that runs along the park boundry, another side is the small stream that cuts through the middle of the park, another side of the square is the fence that separates the pool from the park. And the 4th side of the square is from the end of the fence to the river that runs along the boundry:



___ (top of square)

o n |             |V

l  c |             |E

   e |             |R



- - - - - - - - - -

s t r e a m

(bottom of square)


Count the number of trees in this square. The 10s digit of that number is "C" (i.e. if there are 23 trees, 2 is the number. If there are 94 trees, 9 is the number.)




Origional contents are a log book, small pencil, 2 quarters, and a WG dollar.



The cache has had these quarters in it:

Connecticut (P)

Florida (D)

Michigan (D)

Missouri (D)

Maine (D)

This one was our favorite, even though we did not find it! The kids really enjoyed puzzeling this one out... (The Kate S. loves) is very faded but we could still make out the clue. We think we narrowed it down to the right place but were unable to find it because of the very large piles of branches and tree limbs from the ice storms this past winter. We will try this one later.

As of 6/20/2004, this cache has been missing!

I'm going to check on it and see if I can re-hide it. other wise I'll have to keep it archived.

sorry no one was able to look for it (from this site).

Thanks,

7 pm. Congratulations to RixWorx on his FTF! We enjoyed solving this one, and the coordinates are right on the money, although we spent about 20 minutes looking for it. We liked mcon1's strategy to get the cache put back in exactly the right place each time, too!
Took: the Florida (Denver mint) quarter.
Left: a Connecticut (Philadelphia mint) quarter.
