Geocache Description:

This cache is part of the Enigma M4 Series. Make sure you take note of the clue inside so you can find the final cache, Enigma M4 Series: Final.

The Grundstellung (indicator) was a part of the setup of the Enigma machine that could be changed. The machine could initially set to a starting position specified by letters in the rotor disk and visible to the operator. The 3 wheel machine had 3 visible letters while the M4 machine had four. The indicator would change during operation as each letter was typed (actually, the wheels rotate before the letter was encrypted).


You seek a camouflaged bison tube about chest high.


Alternate coordinates if you have trouble: N 35° 47.006 W 078° 55.365
