Geocache Description:

Stealth is required, avoid the zombies, and the troll. Oh yeah, you have to WALK


You have been recruited to provide manPOWER and PAPERWORK by the remaining members of a small group of bounty hunters hiding out in the ruins of a Sprawling Hospital. The only road in and out of area has been blocked off by a fallen construction tower on one end, and a giant sinkhole on the other from the recent enormous flood. A large train full of rusting Toyotas blocks the far side for approximately half a mile. The Open parking lots to the east and west are just too much open space to risk considering the walkers in this area have been contaminated by the Nuclear Reactors to the East.

In front of you stand three people. A very fit, tanned and stunningly handsome Latin man comes forth to greet you at your meeting in the hospital morgue. He states that his name is Enrique (no, dont call me Rick and definitely not Ricky). He introduces the older woman on your left as Majel and explains that she is the group’s medic and computer technologist, and the blond English lad on your right, as Jamie, the group’s survivalist and cook.

He hands you a blood stained paper that they say they found when they secured the hospital zone.

He says they are in contact with the author, and have negotiated the trade. For your role in this mission your share will be one electroplasma device*, slightly used, but fully charged.

The mission is local, but will take at least the four of you to complete. Enrique will take point with Majel and Jamie keeping watch, giving you time to search for the data and anything of interest. The mission will be on foot, repeat, on foot, as there is no access to the area by motor vehicle of any kind. Extreme stealth will be required, and as noise attracts the walkers, especially at night, all forays must be completed by 8pm at the latest.

Enrique tells you that at great cost, including the life of the local sheriff, all known evidence points to finding a code of some kind, and that there are several data points to be found. Beyond that, there may be more, but who knows. He has no further information, but is hoping that your experience and equipment will give you insight that they don’t have.

---------------------------------- *doesnt actually exist NOTE: due to circumstances, I needed to overhaul this cache puzzle slightly. The data points are now correct for the technology available. -gruff june 20 2017
