Geocache Description:


Please be careful when searching for this cache. You will need to walk over lose rocks around a rock talus to reach this cache.

Back in the day when I first started Geocaching, the talus areas were known as "taterville." I had this "tater" sitting around for a while and decided to convert it to a cache. 

At the posted coordinates you should find a rock with a riddle on it. Underneath the rock is a cryptex where the answer to the riddle is the opening code (which pulls apart from the ends once you have the correct word aligned). After you pull it apart you should be holding the dials in one hand and a key in the other. At the very end of the key is a Nano container. The end of the Nano container unscrews and should contain a small rolled up log. You must sign the log to claim a find. Bring your own pen or pencil.

Please do not post spoiler photos showing the riddle, or the solution on the cryptex (photos will be deleted without warning), or transcribe the riddle in your log (log will be deleted with warning).
