Tango India Whiskey Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

Blue Heron: Confirmed as MIA. Odd that it went missing, given where it was located--totally out of sight behind a tree off a not-that-busy road. I don't have the time or energy to replace it and it's had a good run so I'm pulling the plug on it.

Geocache Description:


A Challenge for Puzzle People!

 

I’m constantly amazed at the ingenuity of my fellow geocachers in coming up with ways to convert seemingly unrelated data into cache coordinates. This invariably results in my spending hours trying to solve puzzle caches when I should be doing any number of other things. So, hopefully, here's a little payback.  Naturally, the above coordinates are totally irrelevant to the location of the cache. The correct coordinates are:

North: Mike Foxtrot Victor, Delta Charlie Alpha, Mike Charlie Delta

West:  Lima Alpha Six Three, Delta Alpha Bravo, Hotel Quebec Zulu

The puzzle has several levels.  Deciphering the above gibberish is only the first step.   

The difficulty level on this one is based solely on the puzzle, not on the cache location.  Hey, I'll even tell you it's an ammo box behind a tree just off the road!  You can park within about ten feet of it, though it is not in any way wheelchair accessible.

As with any puzzle, some will hit on the solution quickly, others will not. If you fall into the latter category and are looking for hints, I will be happy to help, PROVIDED YOU FIRST FILE A DNF. The puzzle is the most important part of the "search!"
