Solve the puzzle below to obtain the coordinates for the final hide. Use the geochecker to validate your answer.

When looking for a spot to hide this new cache, I stumbled upon an enormous spider web. It was so large, that I counted 675 spiders and flies on it! That's a lot of legs! 4,476 to be exact.

How many spiders did I see?

Images are of an intricate web suspended up to 10 feet between trees in Bute Park might be an arachnophobe’s worst nightmare. But, rather than something from a horror film, Cardiff’s newest art work has been created to give visitors a unique perspective on the park’s natural habitats. Painstakingly created over the course of a week and a half by volunteers using hundreds of rolls of sticky tape – and nothing else

Making the rounds of some new(er) puzzles and noticed this one. A nice easy calculation and the answer was confirmed. Reminds me of Jr. High algebra Smile. The location was very familiar as I was here not too long ago to grab the now-archived 76er cache. Nice surprise at the end... worth a favorite!

WOO-HOO! Really fun puzzle that took me back in time to solve. I enjoyed a nice walk in the shade to find this one, and not too many spiders except one big one at GZ! I found the container after a brief search and enjoyed the surprise at the end. I was a little sad to see the old "Name that 76er" cache finally got archived nearby. I stamped my name, and returned as found. Thanks Grizz,....err I mean Shelob, TFTC!

I ain't afraid of no math! And I ain't afraid of no spiders either. I love this puzzle and I love the container.

I rode my bike over to the area on this pleasant evening. I saw a baby deer right by the side of the road. As I was taking my bike into the brush to set it next to a tree, I saw the momma deer. After I completed the hunt / find / sign of the cache and started heading back out I saw the momma and baby again. I wasn't fast enough to catch a photo, unfortunately.

What a fun puzzle.
Love these math challenges.
Solved it fairly quickly and off for the hunt.
A little search at GZ, but coordinates are spot on.
Then the fun surprise in the container.

A favorite for sure!
