Geocache Description:


IF YOU HAVE TROUBLE SOLVING ANY OF THESE PUZZLES, PLEASE CONTACT ME FOR HELP!

This cache is part of a new Geoart series of mystery caches located along the Beach Lake Trails. The cache is not at the listed location. You will need to solve a fairly simple puzzle to get the actual coordinates for the cache. To solve this puzzle, you need to find the coordinates of a famous fly-fishing river that are hidden somewhere on this page. Enter these coordinates in Google Maps or similar map program and look for the name of the river. You will then enter the name of the river, and the full name (no abbreviations) of the state in which it is located into Puzzle-Checker. If the river is not located in the US, enter the country instead of the state. For example, if the river is the Susitna River, your answer is SusitnaRiverAlaska (No Spaces). Submit this answer to Puzzle-Checker, and you will receive the actual coordinates for the cache.

The  names of rivers in this area are not shown in Google Maps or other mapping programs. To get the answer for this puzzle you will need to enter the hidden coordinates into Google Maps. The coordinates will be near a point of interest (POI) on the map. The name of the POI containes the name of the river.

This river is probably the premier steelhead river in the world. I have not fished this river but many of my friends have. I have heard many wonderful stories of fishing and catching huge powerful steelhead on this beautiful river. It has a run of very large steelhead. Many steelhead here are over 20 pounds. The fish in this river are extremely powerful and beautiful. To get to the spawning area, the fish ascend a very long and difficult rapids. If you have ever dreamed of fishing for steelhead, this river needs to be on your bucket list. The hidden coordinates take you to a POI that contains the name of this river.
