Geocache Description:

Stan's Apple Number 35

Welcome to Stan's Apple, 36 mystery geocaches hidden around Stanthorpe, home to the Queensland Geocaching Mega-Event 2015. A variety of geocaches wait, so get solving and organise a trip to the Granite Belt.

In cryptography (the process of encrypting information to keep from the enemy or keen puzzle geocache hunters), plain text is the information that the sender wishes to transmit to the receiver.

A simple example would be in the geocaching favourite, ROT13. In the below example, each individual letter is substituted for the letter 13 after it in the alphabet. So, A=N, B=O, C=P and so on. And vice versa, where N would be substituted for A et cetera.

Plain text: welcome to stanthorpe
Encrypted: jrypbzr gb fgnagubecr

ROT13 does not deal with numerals or any other character at all. But with all of that in mind, the co-ordinates for this geocache can be found at:
