Morris The Cat Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

greenwoodturner: Went for a walk today and stopped by to check on the area. Although the work has temporarily stopped, there is always the chance that it will start up again. Will all of the ground clearing, I suspect that the poison oak and the blackberries will eventually take over the area; I already had to dodge poison oak simply on the walk towards GZ. Sadly, we've decided to archive this one.

Geocache Description:

The cache is not at the listed coordinates! You must first solve a puzzle, in order to determine the true cache coordinates.

Morris the cat hated mice! Whenever he saw a mouse, he called for his fellow cats to join him for a little game of 'cat and mouse'.

But the mice became too smart; they would hear Morris call for his friends, and they would quickly go back into hiding. Morris, being the smart cat that he was, soon devised a code for calling his friends; the mice, unable to break the code, soon became easy pickings for Morris and his friends.

To locate this cache, you must break the code, and then use your findings to solve the following picture puzzle:

Once you think that you have solved the puzzle, you can check your answer here.

You are looking for a piece of camo'ed PVC pipe, which has plastic end-caps on both ends. The cache contains a pen and a log sheet, but there is not room for trading items, unless they are small. Please do NOT put the lid back on so tightly that the next cacher cannot remove it!

The listed cache coordinates can be used to help you find a parking spot for when you begin your search for the cache.

Good luck!

WARNING - Be on the lookout for poison oak! Also, there are a lot of small ants in the area, so you might consider bringing some gloves.
