Geocache Description:



This cache is dedicated to the Dunn County Veterans who have served from the Civil War up to the present on every continent, in every ocean, and in every air space.

 

This is a puzzle cache. The physical cache is not at the above listed coordinates, but you will need to visit the above coordinates and read the information. In order to locate the cache you must decipher the true coordinates using a simple cipher. Good luck.

 

This is a text cipher. At the provided coordinates is the Dunn County Veterans Memorial and will be the key to solving the cipher text provided below. The cipher text to be decrypted consists of sets of paired number (separated by a forward-slash). The first number represents the horizontal word row on the plaque. The second number represents the position of the word in that row. All punctuation in the key text is ignored.

Once you have the words identified, you'll have to decide how to use them to fully crack the cipher and get the coordinates you need. Don't worry, though, it shouldn't be too tough.

[begin cipher on south side of memorial]
+44° 4/4; 2/4; point 3/2; 6/7; 7/5

[continue cipher on west side of memorial]
-91° 2/6; 6/2; point 3/4; 1/1; 4/1
