Geocache Description:

Other than the N 34 and W 084, the above coordinates have no relationship to this cache. Unless you want to emulate a human pachinko marble, don't search here - you'll get hit by a car.

I don't know if I was inspired by the E.R.I.K cache ( - may you rest in peace)(and I'm not referring to our beloved Erik88l-r - I don't think he could ever inspire anyone to be mean, much less this evil), in a bad mood and ready to take it out on the world , or simply ready for a new challenge . Whatever the reason, and it's probably a little of each, I've decided to push my caching envelope to a new level. And yes, that means this was not designed to be easy. Sorry (not).

This cache is a mystery puzzle. I'm not going to tell you much. Really, all I'm going to say is this (and I do mean really - this is all you're gonna get):

Clues to the cache are found on a journey. Your journey will begin at GC1H32V. Even though this cache is archived, read my last entry and put together additional information contained within the posting to help determine what to do. Additional clues exist throughout the journey, but I'm not saying where or in what form. Just be observant.

Due to the involvement of this cache, I need evidence of completion. Please send me the code found near the end of your journey to receive credit for your find. Use the coordinate checking system (formerly the "evince" system) below to verify the coordinates where you might have a chance to find the code. No correct code? Well, no logbook which means no smiley. Additionally, this cache won't be permitted to contribute towards the requirements of other challenge-type caches.



After confirming your coordinates through the coordinate verification system above, the GZ will include the code you need to send me as well as the final coordinates to the logbook. At the final coordinates spot, you gain access to the logbook using the code you just found. Here, a $10.00 Gift Certificate to the local restaurant, Red Brick Oven, awaits the FTF. Note: The certificate expires January 10, 2009 - so you'd better hurry! The certificate will not be replaced after expiration. After that, your prize is the enjoyment of knowing you got the FTF and a great framable expired certificate.

And that's all I have to say about that. Good luck!


And First to Find honors (complete with a beautiful framable expired certificate) go to beldredge! Congratulations and way to go! (took ya long enough, though )
