Geocache Description:

Along Hwy. 60 near Dahlonega, Georgia

This is a Sudoku Challenge cache. Sudoku is a numbers puzzle game that uses no math or calculating. It is simply using the available numbers in a 9X9 grid to complete the empty spaces in the grid. Each Sudoku puzzle has a unique solution that can be reached logically without guessing. Enter digits from 1 to 9 into the blank spaces. Every row must contain one of each digit. So must every column, as must every 3x3 square. Below is an example picture. The actual challenge puzzles are in the gallery.

In the gallery images are the two Sudoku puzzles for this challenge. Each puzzle has three yellow highlited boxes. These are the correct last three numerals of the North and West coordinates to be substituted into the coordinates listed above to find the cache location. The picture captions explain which Sudoku puzzle are for the North coords and for the West coords. The coords listed above are only for reference and to find the general area of the cache. Nothing has been placed there.

***PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS. THEY ARE IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTANDING THE CHALLENGE***

BRING YOUR OWN PEN
This is the last of the easy ones. There is a busy roadway nearby and you can't avoid being seen. So try to look like you belong there or pull out a map to conceal the GPSr.

This is number three of a series of Sudoku Challenges placed by Charlie Fingers. The first three, including this one, are classified as EASY difficulty. The second three challenges of the series will be classified as Medium difficulty. The final three will be classified as HARD difficulty. As the difficulty level of the Sudoku puzzles increase, as do the First To Find awards become more valuable. There will be a "Grand Finale" number ten Sudoku Challenge that will be classified as DIABOLICAL difficulty and the FTF award will be revealed once it is placed and active
