Warning

Please note: To use the services of geocaching.com, you must agree to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

This cache is a puzzle cache and the fifth in the Capture the Flag series started by Darkmoon.
The Capture the Flag game is being played by the cachers in the Oklahoma City and Tulsa areas. The objective now is for a cacher in the Tulsa area to find this cache, capture the flag, and re-hide it in a new cache in the Tulsa area.

Anyone can visit and claim CTF V but the flag should only be taken by a Tulsa cacher willing to play by the rules set by Darkmoon in the original Capture the Flag cache (GCJDFA).

The coordinates above will take you to the Flag Plaza in Stars & Stripes Park on Lake Hefner. That seems like an appropriate location for a Capture the Flag cache. The actual cache is not hidden at the above coordinates but is within ½ mile (yes, another Lake Hefner cache). The successful flag hunter will be able to deduce the proper coordinates from this puzzle:

North GU* GA.EUL

West FRT* GH.NRT

Each digit (0-9) is represented by a unique letter in the above puzzle. If you would like to e-mail me when you have deciphered the final coordinates, I will confirm that you have correctly solved the puzzle. The cache is a regular cache in a large camouflaged plastic jar. You will encounter high grass and dense brush for last part of the quest.

CACHE AWAY!

Finally made it out to this one. Nebain had to help me with the puzzle...I'm guess I'm not very logical!

I solved the coordinates for this one some time ago, and we finally made it out to grab it today. I enjoyed the logic puzzle for determining the final location.

1/7 Team Okie7 out for a day of caching after the meeting. Its nice to have weather to cache in again. I guess that is what happens when you are fair weathered. Nice to get another weekend of caching in. TFTC.

You just gotta love when one of the is quick to solve the puzzle.
