Geocache Description:


We hope that you enjoyed the first installment of the series and are now ready for the second. Our brains have been firing on all cylinders trying to think of a puzzle good enough to follow up the first. Well that time has arrived! In Cipher Madness #1, we mentioned that some of our favorite caches have involved painstaking ciphers, followed by an even more painstaking hunt through severe bushwhacking territory to find old, rusty ammo cans. For those of you who found Cipher Madness #1, you know there certainly wasn't any rugged terrain involved. Cipher Madness #2, however, IS an ammo can and it's placed at a location which is a slight bit more rugged. 

THE CACHE IS NOT AT THE POSTED COORDINATES ABOVE. If you head there you'll go for a swim and find nothing. Instead, to find this cache, you'll have to decode the cipher below which will lead you to the corrected coordinates. It will likely be tough, but the reward is that oh-so-sweet feeling of victory when you've triumphed over the cipher and hold that camo'd out ammo can in your hands. Did I mention that FTF will recieve a glow-in-the-dark FTF coin? So get those neurons firing and keep your search engine at the ready because you've got a cipher to solve! Happy caching!
