GMC #10: Pleasant Valley Periscope

About This Location. 

Welcome to Pleasant Valley, one of eleven municipalities in Marion County. Pleasant Valley is largely a residential community with a few commercialized restaurants and hotels. If you've ever stayed overnight in Marion County, you've probably stayed in Pleasant Valley. This cache is located at one of the small community parks in the area. It is open during daylight hours only so please be respectful and use stealth during busy hours. 

About This Cache.

The cache creator spent time around submarines while serving in the US Navy. Take a look at this periscope and see if you can find the code for the lock. Like any periscope, mirrors cause light to change direction. This gadget cache has no moving pieces but will show you the code if you know the secret.

THANKS FOR VISITING!
