THE CACHE IS NOT AT THE
POSTED COORDINATES!
The correct coordinates for this cache have been encrypted in
the ciphertext below. I wanted to create a cipher that would
require you to break out a pencil and some paper instead of
searching the web for a cipher solver. As far as I know these
coordinates can NOT be deciphered using any existing web
application or software (unless you write your own or work for the
NSA)!
FIRST, you will need to learn how to decrypt a regular playfair
cipher. Once you are familiar with that technique modify your
method as described below.
The final coordinates are close to a major highway. This cache
is NOT accessible from that highway! Parking coordinates will be
supplied by the GeoCheck. Don't forget to bring your own pen
and please NO NIGHT CACHING! FTF gets a brand new GOTCHA
pathtag!
Encryption Modifications:
• 6x6 grid instead of the standard 5x5 grid
• Using the correct keyword technique list 26 letters FOLLOWED
BY the digits 0-9
• No need to omit Q or combine I with J
• Be careful not to mix up 0 with O, 1 with I, 5 with S and 6
with G
