Geocache Description:


Welcome to the OKIC I-275 Powertrail

I-75 S Interchange 

This trail will take you to the states Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana (the OKI in OKIC) to find caches (the C in OKIC) at each exit.  We hope you have fun hunting for the caches and thank Red Viper for the idea.

I am not sure of the name of this cypher, but I saw it in W.E.B. Griffin's The Corps Series.  I would call it a personal cypher.  You need to know a personal phrase and you number each letter in that phrase starting at the 1st letter, ignoring all spacing and punctuation, until you get to 99.  Then you will recieve a bunch of 2-digit pairs which correspond to a postition in the personal phrase.  Once you complete all the 2-dgit pairs, you have completed the cryptic message.

Personal Phrase:  2nd verse of Gomer Pyle's Hymn

If you have the correct phrase, postition 24 should be a 'B'.  When ever you see a 'B', replace it with an 'X'.
