The Puzzle Box Traditional Geocache

This cache has been archived.

sgshultz: This was the Puzzle Box that started my puzzle box journey. It has been totally destroyed, and I can't see any opportunity to rebuild until possibly this summer, so I think I will Archive it. It had a good 6 year life and enjoyed 30 favorite points! It was well loved. Farewell my friend!
