Geocache Description:

For my 50th cache, I wanted to do something different. Here's different. With inspiration from three other nearby puzzle caches that pay slight homage to C3F members in a fictional scenario, here's my take.


Ruralseeker created a really hard puzzle cache (which I might, one of these days). As you know, after the Third Tuesday event, although most attendees leave after it's over, sometimes people stay late to work on puzzles that are plaguing them. Appropriately, two teams emerged.

Team one consisted of:
Zekester & Simon
HunterKat
Brush Boy
Phos4s
Deepdish23

Team two consisted of:
NCPositronics
Nurtle
JAB430
ProgKing
Alzarius
ZorroBarnes
GardenNclay (Her caching partner didn't participate. After all, he's just the driver....)
Monacans
Humphr1d

Team one only came up with the North coordinates and team two only came up with the West coordinates. However, C3F members work together. With the value of each member combined, they realized they had solved the puzzle.

See if you can figure out what they did....

Final coordinates are roughly five feet off by satellite imagery. That's actually convenient, so as to reflect the suggested direction of assault.

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