The three puzzle caches are:
Every good boy does fine (thanks, forestbloom for permission to
use your cache!),
Num Lock, and
4 is Cosmic.
One day I noticed that there were a few mystery caches in this
area, and decided to add one more - making it a true Mystery Spot.
Anyone ever drive by, or even stop at the tourist trap in Santa
Cruz? I found 31 similar roadside "destinations" in the US on the
'net, each claiming to have strange, mystifying, or zero-magnetic
affects. Nothing like that here... or is there?
To solve this one, you'll have to substitute the letters in the
coords below, with numbers you found in the previous 3 caches. And
then change them, they are encrypted. (Evil laugh) Hence the
difficulty level.
N - 3 8 ° 5 5 . M Y S
W - 1 2 1 ° 0 3 . T E R
M = D (from every good boy does fine) = __ = __
Y = A (from 4 is Cosmic) = __ = __
S = 0 (zero) = __
T = 7 = __
E = C (from Num Lock) = __ = __
R = U (from Num Lock) = __ = __
S and T were given to you (but you still have to change them).
Here come some hints: Each number exchanges with another, and you
probably have done a similar encryption a few times before - even
if you've never solved a puzzle cache before.
Bring a pen or pencil, cache is too small for them. At
placement, cache contained: Hot wheels car, Baseball Hall of Fame
pin, baggie with log inside.
Big congrats to puzzle sleuths Geo-Jeeper and L3-Geo for FTF! It
can be done, 5B!
