UPDATE JULY 16, 2018:A new lock is on the cache. The combination is posted within arm's reach of the cache.

When the highway construction started in this area I archived Flip the Switch (GC4D6YT). it looked like the spot was going to be bulldozed. However, the construction left the spot undisturbed, so I decided to reuse it.

You will need to solve two puzzles to access the cache: one puzzle to get the coordinates and another to find the combination to the lock.

The Rolling Stones released Flip the Switch on their Bridges to Babylon album.

The cache location is here:

N 38° 26.AB3' W 105° 11.CD9'

A = The year the album was released (add the 1st and 4th digits).
B = Already Over Me
C = Gunface
D = You Don't Have to Mean It

The cache is secured with a combination padlock. You will have to find the combination. It is posted in plain sight very near the container.

Be sure and grab the clue for finding Flip the Switch Again (GC4D6Z5) inside.

This is a very public place. You will have to use extreme stealth.

You can check your answer for this puzzle on GeoChecker.com.

RedV2 and I are celebrating the very nice weather by finding a bunch of puzzle caches in the area. TFTC

Found the original a couple of years ago. Once I got to GZ I knew immediately what we would find.

On an all day cache outing with Ark Goose in the Canon City area to pursue puzzles, challenges, and other interesting caches along the way. It was a perfect day for caching. We were mostly successful in our endeavors with only a few DNFs along the way. There were some that we started to pursue and determined they would require more time and effort than we could invest today so saved them for another time. Thanks to the COs for providing and maintaining a lot of fun caches in this area. Also discovered a lot of fun TBs along the way. Had found the former hide here on a previous trip. Got this one quickly but later realized we forgot to get the code for its companion (which I had already found but Ark Goose hadn't). Ran out of time to come back - oh well, got to save something for the next trip! Nice hide. SL. TFTC
