Geocache Description:


THE CACHE IS NOT LOCATED AT THE LISTED COORDINATES!

The degrees are correct but the minutes are not.

Solve the puzzle to find the minutes.





In order to find this cache you will need to print the image of the numbers on the left.

It is very important that the number strip on the print out is exactly seven inches from the top of the first #31 to bottom of the last #31!

The source image is 36x680 pixels but it may get resized due to the page layout or due to your printer quality setting.

One option to try is to right-click the number strip image and select "Print Picture...". If this doesn't produce the right size strip you may have to save the picture to your PC and manipulate it with image processing software before printing it again.

Once you have a print out where the numbers are exactly seven inches from top to bottom, you need to cut the numbers into a strip of paper. Cut just inside the lines on either side of the numbers. Be precise, the number strip should not contain the lines when you are finished.



In addition to the paper strip you will need a key hidden in this text. Be aware that the energy required is extremely small! Almost anyone… should be able to produce it.

You are looking for a small cylinder.
