Geocache Description:


CACHE IS NOT AT POSTED LOCATION.

When I moved here to Texas in the spring of 2021, it was a big change. I took a break from caching for almost two years. After settling down, I finally felt at-home enough to hide a cache or two here and maintain them.

This one's been brewing in my imagination for a while. Hope you enjoy!

The cache is located at:
N 029 31.*** W 098 14.***

FE073BFC11FF106EA744BB751695DBAE9B2EC1640507FAAAAFE01D5300BE406BE2473A94D085E9C842883103BD348736705BC7EA67A3C58E66B31B096D760F369468C5EB4D19F807AA7ABEFA0078046FF8C5EB105A5713BAD1CFF5D6B168EEACF8BD046B1C2FEB3503

Once you've figured out the correct way to format that data, you will need to add an extra 0 (zero) to the end of it.

Technically, with just that information alone, and knowing which numbers are missing from the coordinates, it should be possible.

With that being said, I've left a good chunk of guidance in the hint section.

The bigger hints are typed in reverse so you won't spoil anything too terribly by opening the hint section.

Message me for extra hints; I'm more than happy to give them out generously.

11/14/2022 - I fixed an incorrect hint in the hint section.

Remember to have fun.
