Envelope


Cache is NOT at the listed coordinates, but it is in Fox Run park.
I won this cache at a CITO event last year and just now got around to hiding it. It is a Witzy container that should be easy to find.

I've been wanting to do a mystery cache for a while now but I couldn't figure out where to hide it. Then one day I received this letter in the mail. It was just full of good ideas.

Pretty sure I solved the puzzle correctly, as I ignored the address and used other info to decode coordinates. There was some snow at the GZ, so there's a chance it's under the snow, but we searched a 40' radius around GZ the best we could and found no trace.

My wife and I were traveling through the area and stopped to find a few select caches. I love working on challenges and I am working on a challenge that requires finding 60 caches with "Mr., Mr or Mister" in the cache title. This one would have helped me, but I could not find the cache. I send my puzzle solution to the CO to see if I was looking in the right location. DNF

Found with animjason, DimensionGarret, Landen24, weasel311 and youkfish. We signed the log Sith Team to save space on the log aaaaand because we thought it'd be fun. While searching and tromping through the forest we pretended to play Star Wars. We used sticks for guns and pine cones as had grenades. It brought back the days of having a creative young mind and young heart. It didn't help that we all kept the "That's what she said" jokes flowing all day before the event in the park.

Found Please Mr. Postman on May 6, 2017 using Cachly for iOS.

Thank you, mtn_goat for placing a fun cache for all of us to enjoy. I look forward to finding more of your caches.

Had a fun day of caching with Kyle (PayMeCache), and his kids. We signed everything "Sith Team" for Revenge of the Sith (May 6). Cleared out the park with the exception of a few more puzzles to solve. Found a bunch before, during, and after the great event. Nice seeing so many smilies on the map now.

This was a fun one, without a geocheck I asked around at the event if I had this solved correctly. Was put on the right track, and we solved it with Youkfish and went to find the final together. We also found a letterbox on the way.

Gets a FAVE!

I spent several hours before and after the May the Fourth Star Wars event to do some quality caching in the park. Great trails and a very enjoyable park. Found with Team Sith after the event where we got some advice on how to solve this one. The puzzle was not as easy as it appeared to be. Nice final area. Cheers!

I have no idea why I haven't done this cache before! Might be because both of my caching partners had already done it. But WingsAndTales insisted I do it today and I'm glad I did. It was frozen deep in its spot and required serious work to remove it. I hadn't read an earlier log that said the lid was broken or I would have brought a replacement container. We put some heavy duty rubber bands around it and placed it in a Ziploc. Think it should be fine for now. I promise I will now look at the puzzle because I know it has to be a good one.

Thanks for the really great puzzle. After looking at this for the hundredth time and coming up with the same bad coordinates it finally dawned on me what I needed. I had recently done a project at work that required me to create something similar. Thanks goodness I was able to make the connection. I was close to breaking out the snorkel and waterproof flashlight for a late night exploration! Today I was driving by and decided to enjoy the afternoon with a little hike around the park. This was one of my targets along the way. Quick find at GZ. I signed the log and replaced everything as found. One of the locks is broken but it still closes tight enough to seal. Thanks again for creating this fun puzzle and placing the cache for us all to enjoy!
