MTP Drive? Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

Prime Reviewer: As there's been no cache to find for months, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us, and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

Geocache Description:

CACHE IS NOT AT THE ABOVE LOCATION.

What’s with the name? You’ll see.

WP1: At the above coordinates, look for a seven-digit number. Assign each digit of the number the letters A through G, like this: ABCDEFG, then make the following calculations:

H = A + B
I = D + G
J = E + F
WP2: Using the above letters, translate the following to find the coordinates:
N 29° EH.HBH
W095° IJ.IHJ
Here’s where the cache name comes into play. Some Geocachers will get it, others won’t. If you don’t understand, don’t despair, it’s not important.

Anyway, look for a large sign. On the back of the sign, near the top of the pole, look for a sticker with a pair of numbers. Assuming 29 and 95, the numbers will lead you to the final waypoint.

WP3: This is the cache, and if you park in the right spot, it’s pretty much a park-and-grab. I’m trying out a new type of cache container, so please read and follow the instructions printed on it before you open it. When opening it, please make note of how it was closed; close it back as you found it so that it remains weatherproof.

Lots of good swag inside, including a brand-new, never-been-activated Travel Bug dog tag.

Cache away!
