Geocache Description:

This cache is not located at the above coordinates!

This is the second cache in a series. It should be similar to the first one (GCKGKN) with two one differences (cache size and terrain). Please be careful seeking this cache and do not take unnecessary risks.

Here is a cache for those of you who want a challenge. I've had a lot of fun solving some of the local cipher caches, so I decided to up the ante even more. The coordinates to this cache are encrypted using actual strong encryption. It's up to you to break the encryption and find the cache. You may need some help with the math, but a simple calculator should be more than enough. The cache container is a green decon box with room for small items to trade a log only micro so please bring your own pen. Please bring your own pen to sign the log. Please be discreet when searching for it and rehide it exactly as you found it. Good luck!

If you have trouble deciphering the coordinates, feel free to e-mail for a hint, but not before you Google the web and make an attempt to solve the puzzle

The cache itself is located at the following coordinates. Please note that only the portion within the square brackets encrypted.

North 35 degrees [16 9 8 1 18]
West 78 degrees [16 2 0 3 9]
