The cache is not at the posted coordinates.

Note: I am experimenting with a new type of cache series and as such it is subject to feedback from the community. This is an experiment of my own making and has not received any endorsement from headquarters or any other entity associated with geocaching. Naturally, this cache has passed the review process and has been deemed to be within the community guidelines.

Instructions: You will need to fully complete the following Mystery Caches to gather the information you need to solve this one. Fully completing them means that you have gotten a "Success" message from the certitude checker. I am testing different challenges to completing the certitude checker. Once you get the success message you will receive the additional information necessary.

The certitude checker for the cache that started this whole series contains the formula you need to use to determine the final location of this cache. The certitude checkers for the other two caches in the series contain the data that you need to manipulate.

I welcome your feedback on this series and would like to know if you'd like more of these in the future and / or how you'd like to see me change or improve them. You are also welcome to comment on it in the Geocaching Colorado Facebook group.

As with all geocaches, it is not necessary to contact me to be able to complete this cache or any in the series. It is also not necessary to create an account on the certitude site; you may submit your puzzle solutions anonymously.

Because I know that there are people out of this geographic region who like to solve puzzle caches, and who may also like to be able to race for the first time solver, I am providing a certitude checker. It is not necessary to complete the certitude checker for this cache or any other cache. The success page does not contain any other information and will not be used in any other geocache solutions.

You will need to take a short walk to reach the cache from wherever you park. The cache is most definitely not wheelchair accessible. There is a bike trail that passes near the cache, so you might like to make this a part of a geocycling adventure.


You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.

Congratulations to FTS: sleuthers!

Congratulations to FTF: OUT14ND3R!

I enjoyed this April Experiment. Is there going to be a May Experiment puzzle, ... , a March Experiment?! Like everybody else, I hadn't bothered to get certitudeness on "This puzzle is impossible" so when this puzzle was published it was a race to get certitudified on that one. It didn't take too long to find the cache after I read the hint. A nicely stocked cache. Thanks for all the puzzles. I certainly appreciate them. Cheers.

Headed out and about today, to see if I could get some "science of discovery" points - yup, earned enough to claim the first souvenir - this was the nineth of ten geocaches that I found during my travels. TN-LN-SL. Thanks !

Out with Turtleboy29 today working on filling spots in my daily calendar for mystery, micro and traditional caches. Thanks to all the CO’s for their hard work in placing and maintaining caches for us to find.
Glad we approached this one from the right level but then the hunt was on. Finally spotted it and with some moves that would make a contortionist weep we soon had it in hand.

It took of us to find this cache. I donated blood this morning, so the bending down was making me lightheaded. FayColSalTom broke her shoulder earlier this year skiing! She found & I retrieved! We were second to find on a couple caches today. TFTC
