Geocache Description:

The cache is not at the above co-ordinates,

The cache is in Redhill, quite near the published location. The cache itself is a keysafe magnetic container, inside is a trolley coin for the FTF, a rite in the rain logbook and a pencil.

You could possibly with a bit of shouting squeeze a thin rectangle geocoin about 1x0.5 cm.


This time you are cracking the enigma (technically you are only decoding it because it has been cracked)!

Alert: You are about to download a file in order to obtain further details needed to find this geocache. As the cache owner, I represent that this file is safe to download although the files needed to complete this geocache have not been checked by Groundspeak or by the Reviewer for possible malicious content. As a result, you are downloading this file at your own risk.You can get a decoding guide from http://mckoss.com/Crypto/Paper%20Enigma.pdf

To log this cache I would LIKE you to use the decoding resource I have provided, go on and use online decoders if you wish, but I don't think they are in the spirit of things

On this cache you keep the rotors the same all through translation so the rotors are in the same position all through. Assume N51 ??.??? W000 ??.??? You have to decode: nqkxbiif.bjxii fefi yicif fefi.fefi bjexbs Good luck and don't forget to check your answers for this puzzle on Geochecker.com.
