Geocache Description:


I planted the first Alphabet Cache about 15 years ago (was published on 1/4/09). I was considering archiving the series but decided to put out another one instead. As with the first Alphabet Series, there are 4 or 5 caches in a given location, a hike of at least 1 mile (no more than 2) is required to find all the caches, and at least 1 of the caches (sometimes maybe more) will be a Mystery cache. Each cache will contain a number, which is used to calculate the coordinates of the Mystery cache and the grand final (Total Alphabet – Redux). Remember to record all the numbers.

This sixth and final set of the Redux series contains 4 caches: W, X, Y, and Z. This series is in the same area as the N, O, P, Q, and R Redux series. The suggested parking is (N39 09.261, W076 52.010), on Pimlico Circle. Here there is a public easement, between 2 4-by-4 inch posts. One post clearly states Howard County Park Property and leads to a well-maintained, somewhat-complex park trail system. Whereas N, O, P, Q, and R are mostly to the NW in the trail system, W, X, Y, and Z are most to the NE. Hence, after the start, you will be on a new series of trails. All caches in this series are less than 10 feet off of a trail.

The cache container X is a large (4x2 inch) pill bottle.
