Geocache Description:

This cache is a mystery cache and is located in one of the favorite "natural area" parks on Sacrifice Cliff East of Billings. Please observe park hours. This is about a 3/4 mile hike from the parking area, mostly on a road.

This cache is NOT located at the cords listed above. Solve the puzzle for the cords.

This is a special honorary cache to commemorate the 1000th cache find for LewM and SandiM. I understand they found their very first cache in this same park, so this is coming full circle for them.

Thanks to them for being one of the several early cachers in the Billings Geo-Caching community. They have supported this Geo-community with their many caches and have helped this Geo-Gang grow and evolve. Congrats on # 1000.

Included in this cache are the following items. A gold railroad spike by Lakeman & Tagalong.

There are several pharmacy pens, a St Paddy's Day sticker, a Wyoming magnet, a "God Bless our Teachers" coin, three packets of old stamps, an orange toy car. Lastly a 35mm film canister with a log. If you grab this micro cache you must promise to hide it.

There is an FTF prize which I hope the local folks will let LewM and SandiM be FTF on. Since they are getting the FTF (hopefully) there is also a STF prize for the next to grab the cache.

You will have to break the cipher to solve for the cords.

Solve for the following North Cords:

YZCES QZFC QTGP QZFC DTI PTRSE DTI ESCPP

Solve for the following West Cords:

SAOP KJA VANK AECDP PSK AECDP PSK VANK AECDP

See hints for help. Call or e-mail if you get stuck. Good luck on the solution. Just had to make this mystery cache a tough challange for LewM & Sandi M.
