Fort Knox Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

mcc_: Cache had disappeared again. This is the 2nd time it has gone missing so will archive, also gradually archiving my puzzles so it makes sense to archive this one. The 'apt container' you were looking for was a gold bar. Thanks to all who took the time to search for it.

How Geocaching Works

Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Geocache Description:


The cache is not at the above coordinates, however can be found within two miles of them.

You are looking for a regular novelty container, which can be found by solving the following puzzle.

161;:1‡?(.‡6*;)6¢;]‡‡]8*60)6¢†‡;)6¢)8¶8*)6¢

A correct solution of the puzzle (all 15 digits) will result in a checksum of 48.

The cache is regular-sized, but unfortunately you'll need tweezers.


Logging Etiquette: Geocache hiders sometimes go through a great deal of planning to place their caches. As a result, they'd like to hear your feedback on whether you liked or disliked any aspect of the hide, the journey or location, or if you feel that some cache maintenance is required. Single word, acronym, or "copy and paste" logs may be easier when you have a lot of caches to log, but it doesn't tell the hider or other finders anything about your adventure (or lack thereof) in finding the cache. Please keep this in mind when entering your log.

Travelbug Etiquette: Cachers pay good money for TravelBugs and Geocoins. Please if you take a TB or GC from a cache will you ensure it is correctly logged in and out, also If you take one that still shows somewhere else please be patient before “grabbing” the item, it does not get its mileage by being grabbed and the last person to place may not have had time to log a previous find or the one you took it from. This is particularly important on busy and new caches. If you have an issue with a bug please e-mail the owner through their profile and advise them of the issue. They will be pleased to hear from you.
