Geocache Description:


The cache is not at the above-listed coordinates! However, it is within two miles of that location. Decrypt the following to determine the actual coordinates:

osrolwpvttjfvvdzkifisasiucpjmeuxwjllohrzhkimrockivezavtx
oiiyvrdmiuuaeixpulrziufkrzijfpeqieqsiixfoihprusidnimfrttxnp

The container is a sticky micro. Log-only, please bring your own writing instrument. Please be sure to replace the log inside the plastic bag, fold the bag so that it is entirely within the container, and hide the container as well as you found it.

For some cachers, this will be a very challenging puzzle. For others, the solution will be easy and very educationally rewarding. You can check your answer on Geochecker.com.

This should be a cache-and-dash for most folks. (Difficulty level is for the puzzle, not for the cache itself.) Expect some motorized muggles during daylight hours.


Congratulations to greenwordturner for being FTF!
