Well we actually solved this puzzle a couple of weeks ago with a little help, but didn't get out and about until today. I was definitely over complicating the puzzle so Keep It Simple! - As stated previously, once you figure out the puzzle it's really quite simple, and its all about the puzzle on this one.. Anyhow, We had a nice walk - thanks for the brain buster and the hunt!

I finally figured out the PUZZLE last night. When you're
researching, stick with the TEXT mode....
Stopped and signed the log on the way to work this morning.

Seems I'm getting a LOT of 2nd to Finds. Old age must be
setting in...

Thanks for what seemed to be a HARD puzzle (in my mind) and the nice walk to log it....

P.S. THINK TEXT MODE......

Co found it with Ekard. As much as I cursed the puzzle, once you figure it out, it is quite simple. The EGO side of me wants to say that I actually figured it out yesterday before the added hint, but made a mistake on one of the digits. Since the auto-checker doesn't say, "almost", or "you got all but one", I left the idea and didn't come back to it. Then when the hint struck, I was guided to my previous thought and subsequently prevailed. Thanks for the good fun puzzle and my employer thanks you for the hint.

After many many tries and lots of help from David, I got it to work. David (CIP) solved it first and then helped me out. We went and found it at about 12. Let's jsut say my right foot is soaked. TFTC and the tedious puzzle. :-)

Looks like we may have finally created a tough puzzle. We have added another little hint.

Never thought I'd find so many variations of answers.
After about 12 different methods of arriving at the
coordinates, I think I'm running out of ideas. Cards,
letters, episodes, etc....

Geez, well, if you need a Gamma tester, you know who to call. Thought I had a good idea this morning...does that "INCORRECT" have to be so bold!

I am out of the running for FTF on this one. I am a beta tester now and no I can't give you any hints. :)
