h^jn+ hs&o+ - &n swo++0q Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

peanutbutterbreadandjam: It is with profound regret that I must archive this legendary cache created by 3jaze when geocaching was still relatively new in Calgary. The very unique hiding spot is under water: the water level in the reservoir has risen dramatically, and while it may recede, the location is unsuitable for a permanent cache.
Jim, thank you for hiding this beauty of a cache and for allowing me to adopt it. I was honoured when I briefly held the reins and it was a jewel in my collection of caches. I asked myself what I thought you’d do in this situation and I firmly believe you would’ve archived too.
If the water levels drop low enough and someone finds the container (I doubt it floated away!) I’d love to have it back! Thank you.

Geocache Description:

CACHE IS NOT LOCATED AT THE POSTED COORDINATES.

Here’s a quick (depending on your point of view) Calgary cipher to solve. Have fun and good luck. Please decipher the entire message before you go hunting for the cache. No matter how I looked at it, I couldn’t bring myself to publishing any hints other than those that you have already been exposed to. Please try to avoid any spoilers when logging your finds. I had to change the size of the cache to small, the other would not fit.

Your task is to make some sense of the following nonsense:
