Another RPieperCO field puzzle.  

It is a bison tube, just not in a pine tree!  

Still well camo'd and please replace as found!

 


 

 

 

This is another field puzzle that utilizes a new technology.  If you have done "No Flippin' Clue" GC6DHRA, then you should be fine here.  If you haven't done that one and this is the first you will need a smart phone and access to data.  To make it even more interesting IPhones do not have the capability to complete this cache so you will need to bring a friend with an android or windows phone or contact me and I would be happy to assist.

 

Hope you enjoy this one!

Should be easy to spot, a little more difficult to find, and don't forget I have No Flippin' Clue either!

What a great cache! I was eventually able to find it (laughed at the decoy container). Being familiar with the software needed, I was able to improvise and solve the puzzle despite being an iPhone user (it is possible but does add probably half a star of difficulty). Was able to sign the log and head on to work. TFTC!

Out caching with Hives on a great day. Very clever cache & hide! SL - TFTC

Out on a very nice winter day with Ark Goose to gather some solved puzzles and other caches along the way. This was our final quest of the afternoon and a great one to end with. Had a nice little hike to GZ. Chuckled at our first find! Kept looking and came up with the goods and then worked on what to do next. Noodled our way through it and soon had log in hand. Very nicely done - earns a FP. Nice hide. SL. TFTC

Another fun gadget cache! I think Kerewin explained our adventure very well. I was just along for the ride! Lol TFTC

Out on a lunchtime caching run (literally) with claudey! So glad she asked to come out here - I needed today for my calendar, and the weather was perfect for a mid-day mini-hike. We approached GZ and I quickly spotted the decoy. (Well played, ugh!) After searching around for a little while longer, I had a head-smack moment when I realized I knew exactly what the container was that we were looking for, and had it in hand 3 seconds later. Claudey quickly had the code pulled up, and we got the lock off...but no cache came out! It was lodged quite tightly in the container and wouldn't budge!! We were about to think we were going to have to leave without signing the log when a little extra fervor applied to the cache yielded our victory. Once signed, we realized that a part of the cache could easily twist off and would have granted access to the log much more easily, but then why was the lock necessary? Perhaps that was by design, or perhaps it is in need of a spot of glue...but regardless, we put the cache back together in such a way that the next person can't just twist it off and bypass the lock. We really enjoyed this one, thanks for placing it.

This one was such a fun find and a great area for a super quick hike as it is right by where I live. I made the find quick but sadly I possessed the wrong TOTT for this cache. A quick text to a friend whom also happens to own the cache helped me through my problems. Soon I had the container in hand and the log was mine to sign. Such a cool idea! Thanks for the great hide.

A branch manager!

Awesome! Found the cache easily enough. Unfortunately, I am an iPhone user, so I had to use the alternate (painful) method to sign the cache
Tftc!

Stopped to check on this one today too. Reglued the puzzle piece back to where it goes and redid the placement back to original state. Good to go!
