MAIN MANGO COLA Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

Krypton: As there's been no cache to find for months, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

Geocache Description:

Like most Team COHO hides, You will not find the cache at the listed coordinates. This puzzle is rated at a somewhat high difficulty because unlike our other puzzles, it is not so obvious. As far as location goes, it's not at the bottom of the Atlantic ocean so this is about has high as we felt we could rate this.

It's been a while since we put out a Team COHO puzzle cache so it sounds like a good time for another one. We just recently returned from a weekend at Yosemite. This cache was inspired by the great outdoors. This cache is also a brother's tribute from delroy61 (Fremont CA) to BrDad (Bangor ME).

From the nearby parking lot, you will cross a small footbridge that leads to a series of footpaths in a slightly wooded area. The path is soft and covered in typical forest debris. The canopy is thick in part and your GPSr will probably show a less-accurate reading.

As you saunter deeper into the underbrush the damp forest floor mingles with the spoor of the native fauna yielding a musky aroma that permeates the area.

If you are succesful in navigating through the forest maze and are able to somehow find the clandestine cache location you will be rewarded with an ammo can that contains the following items.

  1. Pedometer
  2. Ozark Trail Portable Mini Fan
  3. Ozark Trail Pin-on Compass
  4. Auto Visor Mirror
  5. Travel Bug UN451H
  6. Gorilla Glue
  7. 6 AAA Batteries
  8. Bungie Cord
  9. Airline Earphones
  10. Light Bulb

For the FTF only, you will find a pair of paper Lincolns.

But before you can get there from where you are, you first need to decipher the (in classic Team COHO style) picture puzzle below.

As always, feel free to contact us for additional hints.
