JJG10101: Yep, I'm moving this one to the cache attic. Although I enjoyed creating the story, there's just too many variables (some considered, some unforeseen) that can diminish the fun.--JJG

Geocache Description:

Your cell phone rings. There's a short exchange, then the caller announces a date and time. With that, the call ends. You've just arranged with the art collector "Copernicus" to steal a priceless sculpture.

After years spent lifting jewels from exclusive Newport Beach homes, it's time for a new challenge: stealing fine art. Why give up a sure thing like boosting diamonds and rubies? The idea of making enough money to retire was certainly a factor. Still, this looks to be a tricky score. You'll need to do some research, pull off the job, and deliver the goods.

Note: This cartridge contains two security measures designed to catch would-be thieves. One is obvious, one isn't. Be alert, or you'll need to start over.


NOTE ENTERED ON 06/02/2012: Hmmn. It appears the marker near the "Sun Ribbon" artwork (near the very end of the cartridge) has been pilfered, moved, or relocated. When entering the coords for the final use a 9 for the last digit.--JJG


The cache is not at the posted coordinates. In order to find it, you'll need to complete a Wherigo cartridge of the same name. Click here to go to the cartridge page on the Wherigo.com site. Watch out for the video cameras, because they just might catch you in the middle of a Heist!

"This is an elegant crime, done by an elegant person. It's not about the money."--Catherine Banning, in "The Thomas Crown Affair"
