Letterbox clues?


Recommended Posts

Had nowhere to put the answers then couldn't find the final cache!!

 

I was on the app. I don't get it? Maybe I'm a bit stupid!!

You're supposed to follow the clues and they will lead you to the cache. There's nowhere to "enter" them. Use your senses of observation and interpret the clues.

I find letterbox hybrids to be pretty fun.

 

You will typically get a starting location. The clues tell you where to look and walk from that physical location that you start at, eventually leading you to a cache. You don't get there by ending at the coordinates, but by following the instructions starting at the coordinates.

The Letterbox Hybrids on this site work in different ways. Some require you to follow clues as discussed above, some might rely just on the coordinates for the clue. Its difficult to say without knowing the cache involved. The cache owner might be willing to help you if you contact him or her.

Cache is GC4ZV6N. I am a newbie to caching, and having looked at the activity to try and gain a little more, but I am no wiser! I'm sorry if I seem a little stupid here!!

The cache page has "additional waypoints" listed. You need to go to those coordinates and answer the questions.

 

Then plug those numbers into the set of coordinates given in bold on the cache page.

 

You really need to use the information on the cache page.

 

You need to go to those locations to gather information.

 

This one is going to be an exercise in manually entering coordinates into your device.

Which app are you using? What platform?

 

If it's the free GS app, I don't think you can add "additional waypoints". This is what you need to do for multicaches, or this letterbox that requires you to navigate to numerous waypoints.
