The Unfoundlings

We here at Puzzlehead understand how fortunate we are that we can enjoy warm tropical weather year round. But if you’re snowbound and suffering from cabin fever, here’s something at which to throw your collective brains.

That Fedora Guy has put together an interesting geocaching.com bookmark list called The Unfoundlings. On it are caches all around the world that have never been found after having been published for at least six months. As of October 2009, there were 53 unfoundlings, and it should come as no surprise a good number of them are mystery caches. A few of them are just challenges, such as the 100 Letterbox Challenge or the South Dakota County Challenge. But most of them are just really tough puzzles, such as:

Good luck with these, puzzleheads!

PS: My favorite unfoundling is not a puzzle – it’s the single most remote cache in North America.

Snowbound? Not in the great white north. Winter’s the best time for caching: GPS reception is fantastic with no leaves on the trees, no muggles, and if the cache has been recently found you don’t even need a GPS…….just follow the tracks. One more good thing about winter caching: Puzzle caches can be found without solving for coordinates.
