Vallarta's Cinematic Past Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

Bad Man Jose: I have recently moved from PV and am no longer able to provide the necessary maintenance for my caches. Since there are no other local cachers to adopt these or help out, I am archiving when necessary. Many thanks to all who have visited over the years and have helped out with maintenance along the way. Much appreciated.

Geocache Description:


This cache is NOT at the posted coordinates. To find the cache you must solve the following puzzle.

Use extreme STEALTH in retrieving and replacing the container and re-hide as found. If retrieval is impossible or the cache seems to be missing, e-mail me your final coordinates for permission to log as found


The posted coordinates take you to "John Huston Plaza" on Isla Rio Cuale where you'll find a plaque commemorating the 25th Anniversary of Cinematography in Puerto Vallarta (click) . The 1990 plaque pays tribute to two different movies and directors: The Night of the Iguana (1964) directed by John Huston (which put Vallarta on the international map and started Hollywood's interest) and Revenge (1989) directed by Tony Scott.

some text


The plaque lists 7 actors/actresses (3 from The Night of the Iguana and 4 from Revenge). Add together the number of letters in their last names to get "X" and use it in the following equation to get the final cache coordinates:

N 20 36.(X + 302) W 105 13.(X + 888)

Checksum: N=19, W=28
