First solve the following letter equations. Some are easy and others not. To my knowledge, none of these equations can be found on the web, but many more examples can be found there.

A.    5 N in a Q

B.    42 A to L, the U, and E

C.    13 U for S

D.    22 Y in a C

E.    7 on a JEJ

F.    8 B is B

G.   14433 H of ME above SL

H.   54 F in C

I.     24900 C in M of the E

J.    32 BS on a CB

Next, order the answers alphabetically on the last letter of the last word (which are all unique) and assign them the numbers 0 through 9. The coordinates of this cache are:

        IE GC.HID

        CJG JF.AHD

Send email for individual answers.

[puzzle] JEJ is a bit obscure now and is the one everyone struggles on - its John Elway Jersey.

Greetings from the UK?. We are on our holidays!!! We are on a 12-day road trip around Colorado, Utah and Wyoming (a geocaching road trip from Denver to Yellowstone and back again), staying in Air BnB’s en route. Day 1: One cache near the first Air BnB to get us started Day 2: Morning caching around Denver and then headed out on the Mount Evans scenic route ?Day 3: Denver to Colorado Springs, collecting a few caches en-route. Made a snap decision to head out to collect some earthcaches , discovered the amazing Garden of the Gods , Manitou Springs, and the lovely Memorial park. Day 4: A trip up to Pike’s Peak and then a slow cache and dash to Glenwood Springs ? . Day 5: Cached to Vernal via Craig and a scenic drive through the National Dinosaur Monument to Harper’s corner . Day 6: Set off from Vernal, visited the brilliant National Dinosaur Monument , then drove the scenic roadway to Rock Springs, more caching en-route. Day 7: Today was Wildlife Day! Rock Springs to Jackson, and the Teton National park. We saw: Pronged antelope, 2 Moose(s), Bighorn Mountain, Elk herds , an osprey . Day 8: The day we saw three bears !! to West Yellowstone, collected a cache in Idaho. Arrived Yellowstone late morning and had a fantastic time in Yellowstone , amongst the Bison. We had a lot of snow showers???. We watched Old Faithful and did lots of of geography homework earthcaches and virtuals . Day 9: A great morning exploring Yellowstone Park -tastic and loved the stroll around the mud pots. On the long, slow drive to Lander, were we spotted Pronghorns and Mountain Sheep – in the road! We did some caching en-oute, as well as stopping for some chocolates from the Cowboy Chocolatier in Meeteetse. Day 10: Today we met up with a local cacher, who had kindly offered to show us the sights/caches of Lander. And… had an amazing day, not only did we pick up some fun caches, we walked some beautiful trails, in great company and learnt a lot about the local history. Original Wildman was incredibly generous with his time and his hospitality. Day 11. A cache and dash to Cheyenne via Laramie, saw lots of Pronghorns and Jack rabbits , collected 23 caches and spotted some very large cowboy boots in downtown Cheyenne.
Day 12: Our penultimate day, and last full day started with a great breakfast at Epic Egg ,we then started the drive to Denver, with a final epic days caching as we had several challenge caches to pick up (with great D/T ratings) and some by Egreog, as his came recommended by the Original Wildman . We also decided after a morning urban caching to take a tour out to Estes Park , and collect some of Bug Rangers’ very creative caches . This meant that we arrived at our BnB quite late, but our hostess was amazing, and we then headed out for a late dinner, minding Meadowlark, which had fab food, and now pack to pack and log, before a last morning in downtown Denver – 38 caches in all today.

Finally, a puzzle that we solved before coming out, that we have actually found the time to collect!!!

TFTC ?

We enjoyed solving this puzzle together over dinner at the Old Spaghetti Factory. It led to interesting conversation like 13 Unicorns for Sale! Thanks for the fun.

We sat around the table at Spaghetti Factory and figured this out. It was a blast! TFTC!

Ok, then! I looked at this puzzle several times and had ideas for a few of the initials, but not nearly enough. Then, @peacelovepi hosted an event in your honor. We put all of our little heads together and over several minutes we came up with the answers. I managed to contribute squat. But now I had the first part and the next two steps were up to me. I drove out to this area and made quick work of the second instruction set. A quick submission to the checker revealed that I managed to get this far without a mistake.
Finding the cache was the easy part. I appreciate that. If the find was as evil as the puzzle, this could have been a 6/1.5 :) TFTC!

Visiting from Philadelphia. Solved a few puzzles at home...grabbed a few around the hotel. Had to think like a local for some of these. Thanks!

We headed out to go grab some puzzles caches that we have saved for the "Planetary Pursuit Challenge". After that we went to Aurora to grab a few more caches while stopping to have lunch at our favorite Mexican Restaurant "La Cueva". Lid to container is missing, the cache log is still in good.

Took a bit of head figuring by the family but we got it. Good way to start the caching day with BriGuy, Best Wishes, DustyRiver / Terry

A great puzzle. I have been stuck on it for awhile and figured I'd email a hand full of my family members and ask them. The next morning we had it figured out.

First find of the day. Out and about with dustyriver grabbing some solved puzzles and a few traditional caches along the way. SL.TFTC

Thxs for writing up this puzzle & placing the cache for a "quick find" SL. The lid to the container is broken, but the log is still inside the plastic bag & dry.

With some friends in town who wanted to see what this game was all about we made our way to this cache. They enjoyed learning some more about this addiction and gave a new meaning to "chasing the dragon".

Found 2 W on a B on April 1, 2017 using Cachly for iOS.

Thank you, sleuthers for placing a fun cache for all of us to enjoy. I look forward to finding more of your caches.

For every 10 P I find, there is 1 I D. This one, however, was not one I didn't.

I had a great time with this one, and despite having solved a similar one to it in Portland (GC4ANRT) yours was MUCH more difficult. There were two clues we just couldn't work out (one of which was due to us being relatively new to Colorado). We eventually resorted to a PAF and figured out the missing pieces. TFTF!

First signature on the log since December 2014! Boom! Love finding a lonely cache! Thanks for the fun puzzle - Cheers! Side note: container lid is cracked.

This puzzle took a couple hours while I watched the Bronco game but I finally got the Homer Simpson Congratulations! This hasn't been solved (or found) in almost 2 years and I still don't know what 54 F in C is. I'll grab the cache soon. Cheers!
