Geocache Description:


The cache is NOT at the posted coordinates.

Sure, this cache could have been named "Happy 2012!" or "Happy New Year 2012!" but that would miss the point. The cache not only marks the new year, but it also honors a great caching couple who have added so much joy and good caching to Yolo County. Thanks to BeJoyful and LDNomad for all they have done for the game. With the holidays around now, I missed the occasion of their 2000th find, but just by a little bit. Therefore this cache honors JoyfulNomad's 2012th, which will happen soon. To find the final, you will need to conduct a little geocaching.com research and solve this puzzle based on sum of my favorite JN hides:
GC2MJH5
GC30A2J
GC26FJ3
GC2KAX7
GC392WG
GC384YN
GC204XB
GC2APMC
GC2AEFN
GC392WB
GC26ED9
GC392WF
GC2X9EB
GC216PD
GC2NQXC

IF YOU SOLVED BEFORE 24 DECEMBER 2018, PLEASE SOLVE AGAIN. THANKS.


You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.


Congratulations (and a deuce) to douggeo for the FTF!!!
