+chaseisawesome Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Can someone list some? I want to try to get into puzzles. I recently placed my first puzzle cache. Quote Link to comment
+Touchstone Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Your best bet is to run a Pocket Query and filter for the cache type (Puzzle in this case), and 1-2 Star in Difficulty: Creating Your First Pocket Query Quote Link to comment
+GeoTrekker26 Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Your best bet is to run a Pocket Query and filter for the cache type (Puzzle in this case), and 1-2 Star in Difficulty: Creating Your First Pocket Query Unfortunately such a query will only find 3 caches within 30 miles of the posted coordinates of OP's unknown cache.

+msrubble Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 How close is "in the Minneapolis area"? Have you got transportation? If you do a pocket query, I think you should allow up to a 2.5 difficulty rating. A lot of cache owners will bump up the difficulty rating a little (or a lot if it's a tough puzzle) to account for you having to make that extra step of finding out the coordinates. Or you could go to page for the puzzle you have found, then click Find... ...nearby caches of this type, that I haven't found Then look at the easier rated ones and see if you can solve them. You could also try the Minnesota Geocaching Association Twin Cities Metro Area forum. Quote Link to comment
+beauxeault Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 I'm not from Minneapolis, but I enjoyed solving this one (GCZ2AA) a while back, in anticipation of a visit there. Unfortunately, the snow and time available and lack of nearby parking prevented me from going to find the cache. Quote Link to comment
Cascade Reviewer Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 Moving thread from Geocaching topics to the Midwest Forum. Maybe the locals can point you to some puzzles in the area. Quote Link to comment
