Geocache Description:


The cache is NOT at the posted coordinates. To find the cache you must solve the following puzzle to get the final coordinates:

In a small lodge in the city of Coe, Co., there were 5 people about to drink cocoa. They were the following people:

Hal Apenyo
Ray Beeze
Ann Arky
Ted E. Baer
Sarah Bellum

During the cocoa party, out of nowhere, the lights went off. All was dark for a minute. Then they lit up again, and the cocoa was missing!!!

However, a mysterious spirit appeared in front of them saying he knew who the thief was. But all he showed them was this quote:

W UCH FOPWSG GVCHG TCF PWHWBU HVS VSOR CTT O POH PIH HVOH'G CY - HVS POH VOR HC USH CNNM GVCHG.

~~~~~~~CNNM CGPCIFBS

There is a hidden name of the culprit in their note.

Who is the culprit?

What is the first name of the "quoter"?

Using A=1, B=2, C=3 etc, determine a summed numerical value ("X") for both the culprit and the first name of the "quoter", and use it in the following equation:

N46 41.(X + 334) W064 09.(X - 32)

Checksum: N=24, W=31
