There often just isn’t enough time to do all of the caching you
would like to do, what with family, work and other commitments.
This series of puzzle caches is intended to celebrate those special
days throughout the year when you get that much-needed extra time
off. For each cache in this series, assume North = 43 and West =
78, and write down the bonus number or instructions in each cache.
(The cache is not at the posted coordinates, but is within 2.5 km.)
February is often bitter and cold, and doesn’t last long: what a
perfect time to celebrate love! St. Valentine’s Day is a great time
to reflect on the great romantic couples throughout the ages: Romeo
and Juliet; Tristan and Isolde, Bogey and Bacall, Taylor and
Hilton Wilding Todd Fisher
Burton Burton Warner Fortensky . . .
well, you get the idea. Julius Caesar even developed a code to send
secret messages to Cleopatra and his generals (although probably
not the romantic kind for the latter group), where each letter in
the message is replaced by another letter a specific number of
characters later in the alphabet. This message has been coded using
a modification of the Caesar cipher where the character shift
varies between letters; figuring out those shifts will give you the
missing coordinates:
