Utilize Contact Mystery Cache

Four Across: I hate to see this one go. I'm not sure I can come up with another one just like it, but I can use the idea somehow, somewhere. I appreciate all those who tackled the puzzle and the bushwhacking at the final.

Geocache Description:

The posted coordinates are false. This is a puzzle cache you should solve at home before finding the cache. The difficulty level is related to the puzzle; the actual hide rating would be a 1.


The cache resides in a patch of green in a busy part of Temple. I recommend parking in the nearby parking lot and walking a few hundred feet to the cache. Watch for ty(PI)cal Texas flora and fauna. The original cache contents include a nice pair of dice for the FTF, plus a wristband, top, eraser, and log sheet.
