Geocache Description:

The posted coordinates above are FALSE. They will take you to a public parking area where you can begin your search. To acquire the actual coordinates you must first decipher the puzzle that follows: (Be sure to use a computer or turn your smart phone horizontal to view, because part of the code seems to get cut off and masked by advertising)

(14)100001112100000111.100110001101(23)100000000110121001101.10110011000000001

 

 


At the date of publishing this cache, I only have a total of six geocaches to my name. My brother, Towman75, however, has 76 of them. Therefore, I have a lot of "Caching" up to do if I ever want to own as many as him. This puzzle cache is my attempt to continue evolving in the game of geocaching as I place a greater variety of geocache sizes, types and difficulties so that I may have a broad range of geocaches for everybody to enjoy.

This geocache is placed with the permission of the Stark County parks district

The area in which this geocache is placed will require a small amount of bush-whacking and can get EXTREMELY soggy during the wet season, so old shoes and/or some galoshes may not be a bad idea. Also, it might be a good idea to avoid this place entirely if there happen to be any flood warnings in the area.

The log inside the container has plenty of room. Don't be afraid to write lots. I'm an English major and so I love to read.

An important final note: Because  the nature of this cache requires that you first decipher a puzzle, it is important that you bring along a writing untensil and physically sign the log. Failure to do so will result in the deletion of your log without notice. This is to ensure the sanctity of this cache and only those who have truly earned their smiley here may wear it. This will be checked frequently.

I have included some goodies for the FTF. Thank you, and GOOD LUCK!

You can check your answers for this puzzle on GeoChecker.com.

Congratulations, K2ASA for the FTF!
