Solve the puzzle below to find a lucky horseshoe!


This puzzle is a variant on a double-crostic puzzle. There are 20 definitions. When you fill in the words or phrases they define, reading down the first letter of each word or phrase gives you the name of the reserve where the lucky horseshoe is hidden.



Each slot for a letter in the 20 defined words and phrases has a number associated with it. If you transfer the letter in the solution to the spot in the grid with the same number, the completed grid will spell out the directions to the lucky horseshoe.



It is easiest to work both ways, figuring out from the grid what some letters must be and using those letters to help you solve the definitions, as well as solving the definitions and moving letters into the grid.



!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GOOD LUCK !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



After you find the lucky horseshoe, be sure to hide it back in its place at least as well as it was hidden when you found it.


P.S. The grid is WAAAAAAY on the bottom of the page. I am not sure why LBNA puts it there, but keep scrolling, and you will find it!
