THIS IS THE LAST LEG OF A 7-PART CACHE SERIES DESIGNED SPECIFICALLY FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO ENJOY SOLVING PUZZLES!

---

The posted coordinates are for the Royal Arch, a great destination hike in its own right, but not the site of this final cache. First, you will need to have completed and interpreted the clue to each of the following six puzzle caches:

BCPT #1 - Boulder (GC1DKMY)
BCPT #2 - Superior (GC1E4GK)
BCPT #3 - Lafayette (GC1E4GN)
BCPT #4 - Louisville (GC1E4GQ)
BCPT #5 - Erie (GC1E4GR)
BCPT #6 - Longmont (GC1E4GT)

Each of these six caches requires solving a different kind of logic puzzle. All of them were designed to be challenging to different degrees, but none are of the 'evil' variety. In other words, no special knowledge is required and you should be able to logically come to a solution without having to guess.

The final cache is located at:

N 39 5(Louisville).(Lafayette)(Superior)(Boulder)
W 105 (Boulder)(Erie).(Longmont)(Superior)(Erie)

The final cache will require a short uphill hike. If you make it to the final, CONGRATULATIONS!! Relax and enjoy the sweeping views of all the places you've visited in making it this far. If you end up being FTF an appropriate prize awaits you. However, just completing the entire Tour is certainly commendable in its own right!

Yay! Nice hike to this one. Evidence that homeless person had camped out here in past but fortunately cache was not disturbed. Perhaps they got scared off by lightning strike in nearby tree. Anyhow, we are happy to be done with the series. TFTC SL

I've been gathering the clues for this cache for a couple of years now. I found the last clue last fall and today was the 1st time I was back up here. For whatever reason I started looked for a micro in the trees. After a good long search I finally read the description and saw that I should of been looking for a regular. After another long search I was beginning to wonder if I had made a mistake solving the puzzle when I finally found it. Thanks for the tour and the puzzle!

Enjoyed all the puzzles! Left a replacement cache and SL. Still need to find Longmont. Hopefully, will try to look for that one again in a couple of weeks.

Nice uphill hike on a sunny day with sweeping views. Carried the Toddler on my back, and Claxons were kind enough to let him 'find' the container. He was very impressed with both the TB in the cache (a Hot Wheels car) and the local cacti. What a fun set of caches, and a great way to get about with the family, thank you!
