Geocache Description:

Jewelry Box of Rock is hidden in Bark River Park near the Rock River. It is in a Decon Box and to find it you will need to solve a puzzle relating to Jewelry.


Parking can be found at N 42 55.366 W 088 49.684

This crypto-family puzzle is a list of related words, in this case, jewelry. When you have identified one of the words, use the known letters to help decode the other words in the family. The code is unique to this crypto-family. You will not solve the puzzle by using any code from other puzzles or from the geocaching site. Once you have the code solved, you will be able to decode the coordinates to the cache. The coordinate numbers are spelled out as individual numbers, i.e., “four” not “forty.” Thus, the numbers in “45” will be spelled out as the individual numbers of “four” and “five.” Use the chart below to help you with the puzzle.

You are looking for a decon box covered in camo tape. When the coordinates were marked, the GPSr was locked onto five satellites, however tree cover will more likely than not give you grief.

Good luck, and have fun!!
