Description

Our first ever GA cache, and a puzzle to make it worthwhile. Hope it cuts the mustard.

This is a three stage puzzle conversion to extract the final coordinates. As they say on Mad As Hell ......  "just a bit of fun"

Thanks for the interesting puzzle. Mrs y'stassie had been visiting family and decided it was time to look for this cache. She was glad there was a nice spot to pull off the road and found the cache with no difficulty. Fitting container for this hide.

Thanks for the cache Rhubarbroad. It was quiet in the area today.

Solved by Mr Beetle and spotted by him too as we pulled up.
The generous clue made sense at GZ.
Not such a pretty spot at low tide but a place where we walk the geomutts frequently. Not today though where a quick park and grab was needed.
Thanks Rhubarbroad and good to see another geocacher hiding GCA caches.

Well, well, well. Laughing What a familiar cache container?!! Could see this from the road, so took all of 2 seconds to grab and sign the log. Thanks Rhubarbroad. Clan Cerberus

Solved this one the other day so it was only a matter of time before i could go find it. had time today so called into gz and spotted the cache before leaving the vehicle, we walked down to the bench near gz to sign the log out of sight of the houses. walked back up and put cache back into its hiding location on our way past.

Kept going around in circles trying to solve the puzzle then set it aside for awhile.
Took another fresh look tonight and then going back to basics, the coordinates appeared.
Definitely made this way harder than it should have been.
With ftf up for grabs, jumped in the geofourby and headed to gz.
The cache was found in the first place I looked.

Many thanks rhubarbroad for placing your first GA cache..
..thoroughly enjoyed.....cheers ST.
