I had a request communicated to me by AgentGeo and AgentSmiley at a recent Geo-event. My mission, should I decide to accept it, was to place a "Secret Agent Cache" for them. I consulted various Top-Secret documents, as well as suitable locations for hiding a secret cache so that it would not be discovered by persons without the top-secret clearance necessary to do so. I feel the location selected will fit the criteria as the Agents informed me that there was no cache nearby. Accordingly, I have encoded the final coordinates so that only those with the correct clearance levels could access the cache. To find the secret location, use the following formula: N 35 02.2 A B W 081 58.3 C D. To find A, B, C, and D, use the following classified information. However, since this cache requires Top-Secret clearance, I have encrypted part of the clues. Agents wishing to unlock the secrets may use the decryption code cipher located on all cache pages to manually decrypt the clues. You must, however, be at the location to obtain the coordinate numbers from the clues. You may need to use extreme stealth. *********************************************************************** FOR THE FINAL SECRET COORDINATES: Go to the posted coordinates (again, the cache is not located at this spot, but is nearby) REMEMBER - YOU WILL NEED TO DECIPHER SOME OF THE FOLLOWING!!: At the posted coordinates you will see: N AHZORE NOBIR GUR QBBE JVGU SBHE QVTVGF. GUR SVEFG QVTVG is "C". (C = _____). GUR FRPBAQ QVTVG is "D". (D = ______). FHOGENPG 1 SEBZ GUR YNFG QVTVG. GUR ERFHYG is "B". (B = _____). Drive around the building to the back. Near the dumpsters VF N YVTUG CBYR. UBJ ZNAL YVTUGF NER BA GUR CBYR? GUR NAFJRE is "A". (A = _____). NOW, Take the answers you got for A, B, C, and D, and place them in the formula. You now have the coordinates for the final location of the secret cache. Check sums: A + B + C + D = 19 (C + D) - (A + B) = 15 A x B x C x D = 0 HAPPY CACHING! Co-FTF HONORS GO TO...AgentSmiley and AgentGeo,!!! (Permission has been granted for this cache)
