Wow, what an odyssey finding this one! I was a big fan of the DES series, so I enjoyed this one as well. I tried solving this several times over the last 2+ years, only to lose my notes and have to start over. I was never able to locate one of the photos. I contacted a prior finder, who helped me with the last picture and then helped me with some math errors. Finally got it on my way home from work today. TFTC!

We just ran out and found this one after sobbing it last night in a frantic puzzle friends. We are new to the area and I am working at a nearby School. I love to use puzzle Cash's so I needed to find all of the nearby Heights. I have a lot of work left to do but it's nice that these are so fun. Thank you so much for the high and I look forward to finding more of your Splendid geocaches
