This cache is a part of D&V's QR Code Smörgåsbord Series:
1. D&V's QR Code Smörgåsbord I (GC2YPCF) is a D1/T1 Nano Earth Cache.*
2. D&V's QR Code Smörgåsbord II (GC2YPAH) is a D2/T2 Micro Traditional Cache.*
3. D&V's QR Code Smörgåsbord III (GC2YPBR) is a D3/T3 Small Letterbox Hybrid Cache.
4. D&V's QR Code Smörgåsbord IV (GC2YPBG) is a D4/T4 Regular Multi Cache.
5. D&V's QR Code Smörgåsbord V (GC2YPCX) is a D5/T5 Large Mystery Cache.
*NOTE: Doing Cache I and Cache II sequentially will save you about 50 miles worth of driving. The others in the series can be done in any order.
This series has two unique features that we think many cachers, from newbies to grizzled veterans, will enjoy:
QR Code Feature
Each cache contains a unique QR Code. Scanning (or otherwise deciphering) the QR Code will reveal part of an email address which will give you the coordinates to D&V's QR Code Smörgåsbord V (GC2YPCX) -- the final Mystery Cache in the series.
QR Codes can be scanned and deciphered using any number of available free apps on the major smartphone platforms (iOS, Android, Windows Phone 7, WebOS, Symbian, and others). If you are not able to scan the QR Code for whatever reason, you can take a picture of it and decode it at SnapMyInfo.com following the instructions found here or, if that doesn't work, you can upload it here.
Once you have found each of the first four caches in the series and deciphered each of the QR codes found therein, you will be staring at an email address that will give you the coordinates for D&V's QR Code Smörgåsbord V (GC2YPCX) -- the final Mystery Cache in the series.
Smörgåsbord Feature
This series runs the gamut in terms of Cache Type, Cache Size, Difficulty Rating, and Terrain Rating. Each of the five major cache types -- Earth, Letterbox, Traditional, Multi, and Mystery -- are represented. Similarly, each of the five major cache sizes -- Nano, Micro, Small, Regular, and Large -- are represented. And, just to round out the variety, each of the 5 levels on the Difficulty and Terrain Rating Scales are also represented.
In other words, a cacher who successfully completes this series will have seen a little bit of everything geocaching has to offer and be able to answer "yes" to the "have you ever done a ________________________________ cache?" question no matter what goes in the blank.
Cool, eh?
We think so, too.

Good Luck and Happy Caching!!!
Also, this should go without saying, but please replace the cache EXACTLY as found. This series was very carefully thought out, and we do not want the hide to be any more or LESS difficult for the next finder than it was for you. Thank you.
