Geocache Description:

The cache contains the "Encryption Key" for the Signs of the Zodiac, Travelbug Challenge, nothins special, just the means to an end ! Oh, and i should say, any claims if the log is not signed will be deleted.

This can be done as a stand alone cache or as part of the challenge, all of the caches are within a mile radius.

The travel bugs are as follows:

Pisces Geocoin, TB44RRP

Libra Geocoin, TB47JYE

Leo Geocoin, TB422DC

Capricorn Geocoin, TB422KH

Virgo Geocoin, TB44RD0

Cancer Geocoin, TB4227Q

Each travel bug will contain information to enable you to find the "Signs of the Zodiac, Travel Bug challenge" cache
GC3KDE9 and the special "Bonus" cache. GC3KDEF

An unactivated travel bug has been left for the FTF in one of the Caches, and a Scratch card in the other, in addition to the usual "Loot"

To locate the cache you will need to find all six travel bugs , OR THE INFORMATION ON THEM ( IT IS NOW NOT NECESSARY TO PHYSICALLY LOCATE THEM, ALL OF THE INFORMATION IS IN THE RELEVANT PLACES )collect the value and Symbol for each letter , and then solve the following:IF A = 0 , AND Z = 25, USING THE SYMBOLS COLLECTED AND THE ENCRYPTION METHOD, The cache will be found at :

N53*44.ABC W001*37.DEF

A similar formula is used for the Bonus Cache, however, it will be necessary to find the main cache before this Bonus cache first as the encryption method will be found within. You will need the Encryption key in this cache .

Good Luck !
