The Labyrinth Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

Nomex: Hi The Four T's
As there's been no cache to find for months, I'm temporarily archiving this to keep it from continually showing up in search lists. Just contact us when you have the cache repaired, [RED]and assuming it still meets the guidelines[/RED], we'll be happy to unarchive it.

You may email me at via the link to my profile on the log. [red]Please be sure to include the cache name and GCxxxx number, or better yet, the URL of the cache page.[/red]

Thanks for your cooperation!

Geocache Description:

This is a short two stage multicache. Container is 4x3x2.
At the first stage, there is a Labyrinth. Take some time to walk the path.
Nearby is a pair of dates needed to find stage 2.

Stage 2 = N 38° 34.AA6 W 121° 28.BB3
AA = sum of digits in the older date.
BB = sum of digits in the new date.

4/25/04 - Increased difficulty from a 2 to a 3. The first two cachers found it, but the next four had troubles. We confirmed the cache at stage 2 is still there

Unlike a maze, which has many dead ends and wrong choices designed to trick the mind, a labyrinth is a design with a single, winding, unobstructed path from the outside of itself to the center. The labyrinth user makes no choices in direction. Therefore, the labyrinth path (because there are no choices in direction to be made) naturally fosters mental relaxation and introspection, and is frequently viewed by it’s users as a metaphor for our spiritual "life" journey. In other words, like life, labyrinths contain many twists and turns but no dead ends.
