Geocache Description:





-- This cache is not located at the published coordinates --

My brother-in-law lives in Florida and is an avid geocacher. In fact, he got me started on this crazy adventure in February 2005. So I dedicate this anniversary cache to him.

This is a puzzle cache and the solution will lead you to a regular Lock&Lock container.

I’ll give you a list of twelve caches. You determine the name of the geocacher who found more of these caches during February 2005 than anyone else.

Once you determine the name, go letter for letter in the name, and substitute the number under each letter (see table) into the coordinates, as shown below. The number substitution for the first letter replaces the first question mark, the second the second, and so on until the number substitution for the tenth letter in the name replaces the tenth and final question mark. Discard any letters in the name after ten are used.

These coordinates will then lead you to the cache. There is no need to bushwhack, cross private property, do anything perilous or collect $200 dollars. If you find yourself considering any of these options, then please stop and try again.
