ANT Partial Solution

[Leveret]

Partial Solution for the ANT Token, and Bonus Prize!

The ANT token was hidden in Maryland at Garrett State Park/Forest on the Rock Maze trail, at a location shown roughly in map grid cell KW.

The following five messages were hidden in the ANT ART and related ART:

1. START AT THE BOTTOM LEFT SQUARE AND THEN GO TO THE RIGHT TWO SQUARES  NOW GO UP TWO TIMES  GO ACROSS BACK TO THE LEFT DOWN MIDDLE  YOU SOLVED A MAZE
2. THE GRILLES CORE HAS MORE INFORMATION  ALSO SEE MAP GRID KW
3. XXXX  XXXX (not revealed by the authors at this time)
4. GARRETT SP
5. FOLLOW ANT TO ROOTS

The authors believe that the token was found without finding all of this information. The authors are offering a Bonus Prize, an Australian ANT coin, to the first participant or team that successfully reports to the authors in detail how ALL FIVE of these messages were hidden/encoded in the artwork, including what message #3 is. Please use the official email address to submit claims for this bonus prize.

[update on 7/5/22: The Bonus Prize has been claimed by Team BugCatchers.]
