In recent weeks, Maingray's friends have been busy populating a
special area within 10 miles of his house with new caches for him
to find. You may have noticed the words 'This cache has been placed
in the Radius of Wonder.' in the listings of these caches. Maingray
has tried valiantly to keep this radius "clean" -- all caches
inside the radius have been found.
Well, to find this finale cache, you must have first completed
all of the following pre-requisite "Radius of Wonder" caches:
| GCZG54 |
GC11CTQ |
GC11JYW |
GC11QQR |
GC11QQQ |
GC11CVV |
GC11CTQ |
GC12537 |
GC11FEY |
GC11QQR |
GC11GYT |
GC127J9 |
Then you have to take the unique symbol from each of these
caches, in the order given above, and convert them into normal
'english' characters. Next use a special decoding tool to determine
the location of this finale. A metallic version of this decoding
tool will be given to the man of honor - Maingray. Everyone else
will have to
make their own - so hop to it!
Here's what you need to decode:
Good Luck!
UPDATE: 2007-Aug-01
This cache has been re-located to comply with new landowner
requirements. If you solved the puzzle prior to this time, then you
have to re-solve the puzzle (pre-requisites have not changed) to
get the new final coordinates.
2nd smilies: You are allowed to make a 2nd find on this
cache providing that you come and leave some cool swag in the box
without taking anything else except potential travel bugs
that need to leave the cache. "Cool Swag" means: unactivated
geocoins, geocaching pins, >$2 swag items, etc.
