Geocache Description:

The cache is not at the posted coordinates, but you can park there.
Small cache, not trail, all bushwhack, maybe muddy, maybe a stream crossing.


Sometimes, all we have to go on is random pieces of the puzzle. We look for sequences and try to identify patterns; things that we recognize. When inquires in established fields of study turn up zilch, we turn to Fringe science for answers. Secrets may be found in rare diseases, chimeras, mutants, psychic abilities, teleportation, analytical & theoretical chemistry, and parallel universes.
This is not pseudoscience, voodoo science, or cargo cult science; fringe science does not lack in scientific integrity and will adhere to the scientific method.
Follow the patterns!

To solve this puzzle, you will need to look for clues which appear between the primary content. The glyphs below were received in the Fringe Division at Homeland Security by Phillip Broyles. Special Agent Olivia Dunham and Astrid Farnsworth will help you get started. Once you've made sense of the pattern below, you may want to consult with mad scientist and chemist Walter Bishop. With coordinates in hand, Jack-of-all-trade Peter Bishop will join you on the hunt and recovery. Think you got it? Check your answer with Gene the Cow

Good luck!

*Note* The cache at the final location had to be moved a bit. Once you solve the puzzle you will need to subtract .011 from the north and add .057 to the west
