Puzzle cache: GC152TG - Across The Nation

Hi. I'm from Los Angeles, CA, and I've solved the first two parts of the multi-step puzzle cache Across the Nation (GC152TG). However, WP2 is about 2000 miles from home, so I'd love a little help.

If you:

- Cache near Appleton, Oshkosk, or Lake Winnebago in Wisconsin,
- Enjoy puzzle caches,
- Would like an out-of-state smiley,

Then read the cache description (http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?wp=GC152TG) and let me know. I can send you the Wisconsin coordinates, or if you'd like more of a head scratcher, I can send you the puzzle from WP1.

I'm not in any hurry, so if you're interested but not planning on being in the area for a month or two, that's fine.

Thanks and happy hunting!

I never knew that this cache existed...very interesting. I see that Giz was co-hider, and that a few Appleton cachers have claimed finds on it. I would be up to helping you out...crossing another state off the list sounds great!! Let me know if I can help.

If you are looking for puzzle qualifications Very Happy

I actually helped another cacher do this one already... I mentioned it to Sagasu awhile back "jibbing" him that I had found a "cache" in appleton that he had not yet.

The Waypoint to be found here is probably a bit buried (if I remember correctly) but not completely unfindable...

There's a puzzle in the WP in appleton that also needs to be solved and it only took me like an hour of thinking about it to solve it.

oh and by the way, there is one that goes the opposite direction to and you can work with the same california cacher... it starts in Appleton and goes back and forth.

I'd be willing to help as long as I can solve the puzzle.

For those who are local and looking for the one I mentioned that starts in Appleton, it's Giz's Stereoseldomitis - GC11ZNW

It's basically a traditional 3-part multi only the middle part is way over "there".... Both parts here in Appleton are "winter friendly"

You might want to do both at the same time. Just sayin...

Cachelovskys and I were able to complete the cache yesterday. Thanks so much to all the cachers that responded! If anyone is still interested in the cache, I'd post a note on the cache page (GC152TG) or put a watch on it, so cachers on my end will know they can contact you.

Happy Hunting!
