This is an ammo can container hidden a good ways outside the northwest perimeter of VBR.

The D/T ratings for the actual hide itself are closer to 1.5/2, but I have increased them a bit in the listing due to the puzzle.

----------

The original contents included the following items:

- A four volume DVD set of 'Jet Fighter' DVDs,
- A set of headphones (for those long flights),
- A personal fan (for the propellorheads),
- Some plastic toy launchers that shoot airplane missiles

...along with a log book and a pen.

'YYZ' is an instrumental rock piece by Canadian rock band Rush, from their 1981 album 'Moving Pictures'. Following its initial release, it became one of the band's most popular pieces and has been a staple of the their live performances.

The song's introduction is a repetition of the letters Y-Y-Z in Morse Code, played with various musical arrangements. The title is a reference to Rush's hometown: YYZ is the identifying code for the Lester B. Pearson International Airport in Toronto, Canada.

'YYZ' was nominated for a Grammy in the Best Rock Instrumental category in 1982, but lost to 'Behind My Camel', by The Police.
