Classic Rock Puzzle Cache Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

GAScubaBum: Stopped by the cache to perform maintenance and was greeted with a very new and prominent NO TRESPASSING sign at the entrance to the wooded are where the cache was located. Sadly, that made this site unusable, so I retrieved the container and am now archiving the cache. It had a good run, and I'll be looking for another location to deploy an upgraded and more sinister puzzle in the future. Thanks to all the fellow cachers who braved the skeeters to log this one!
