This is a cache I made for the Scouts! This will help with the requirements. The theme is geocaching terms. Follow the directions to get the coordinates for the cache.
Directions
Match the term to its definition, then arrange the letter of the definitions in numerical order. Next, decode the string of letters using ROT – 13. Enter the decoded letters into certitude for the coordinates (without spaces).
For example, if term 1) matched definition Y) and term 2) matched definition Z) , then the string of letters will start YZ - Which, when decoded with ROT - 13, are LM. You should have 26 letters without spaces to enter into certitude.
Definitions
A) a cache just big enough to fit a sandwich. Holds only a small logbook and small items.
B) A unique identifier associated with every geocache listing.
C) An acronym used for any of the tools that might be used to search for/retrieve/find/log a geocache.
D) A non geocacher.
E) A tag with a unique code that can be attached to an item. It is then carried from cache to cache in the real world, and its progress can be followed.
F) Designated on a 5-point scale (in half-point increments), it rates the physical environment.
G) The smallest geocache size, they are about the size of a film canister, and sometimes smaller that most likely will only hold a log sheet.
H) This cache is a special place that people can visit to learn about a unique geoscience feature of our Earth.
I) The tiniest of all cachesthe smallest unofficial size. They are about the size of a pencil eraser.
J) An acronym used by geocachers to state that they did not find a cache.
K) Icons featured on a details page for geocaches that describe specific characteristics of a geocache.
L) Designated on a 5 point scale (in half-point increments), it relates to the mental challenge of finding a geocache.
M) A cache about the size of a shoe box e.g. an ammo box.
N) An acronym written by geocachers in physical cache logbooks or online when logging cache finds to denote being the first to find a new geocache.
O) Unusual geocache containers that just don’t fit into other categories, e.g. a magnetic strip. Use this cache type when knowing the size of the container would completely give away the find.
P) The biggest cache type, and it describes any cache with enough room to hold a pair of boots. (or larger!)
Q) A type of geocache that requires seekers to find an associated physical cache, and to find an additional set of geocaches as defined by the cache owner. These caches encourage geocachers to set and achieve fun goals.
R) An ongoing environmental initiative supported by the worldwide geocaching community. Since 2002, geocachers have been dedicated to cleaning up parks and other cache-friendly places around the world.
S) A cache that involves two or more locations. The final location is a physical container.
T) A pair of numbers (latitude and longitude) that pinpoint an exact position on the Earth.
U) A non-Traditional Cache type that doesn't fit into the other categories. Coordinates listed on the cache page are often bogus, and the final coordinates must be solved for through a series of steps or instructions
V) A legacy cache type where geocachers discover locations rather than containers. The requirements for logging a Cache of this type varies—you may be required to answer a question about the location, take a picture, complete a task, etc. In any case, you must visit the coordinates before you can post your log.
W) The point where your GPS device shows that you have reached the geocache location. This term is used to describe the location of the hide.
X) A hidden container that usually includes a logbook for geocachers to sign.
Y) The physical, and online record of everyone who has signed/interacted with a geocache or trackable. Also, the physical logbook inside a cache and, the act of recording a find, DNFs, notes, etc.
Z) Refers to how close your coordinates are. Neither a GPS or smartphone will give you an exact position. At best, you'll get within 10 to 15 feet . Obstructions can lead to a larger range for error.
