Mystery or Puzzle Caches

The "catch-all" of cache types, this form of cache can involve complicated puzzles you will first need to solve to determine the coordinates.

Examples include sending the cache owner a verification codeword found inside the logbook, performing some task at the cache location and taking a photograph, or writing the online log in a format or with content that satisfies the cache requirements.

Due to the increasing creativity of geocaching this becomes the staging ground for new and unique challenges.

Where:
a = (Z)
b = (J)
c = (D minus G)
d = (Y plus Z)
e = (B times K)
f = (Q minus X)
g = (I divided by 11) squared
h = (X)
i = (M minus U)
j = (C minus ((2 times M) plus V))
k = (R minus L)
l = (O minus I plus K)
m = (P)
n = (I minus (S plus K)
o = (L minus M)

Back in late 2013 I work a little bit solving some of the "-TwoCs- is Puzzled" series of caches and was successful at solving four of them - #3, #8, #10, and #11. I found and logged 8, 10, and 11 but #3 got archived because it was washed away in the flood of September 2013.

Recently I decided to work some more on the series. I discovered that #7 had also been archived so that left me with seven puzzles to ponder. I had time before family arrived for Thanksgiving to solve four of the seven - #1, #2, #6, and #9. Plus I even solved #7 because I was having so much fun with them all. I worked on #4 and #5 for quite a bit of time before I broke down and asked TwoCs for a nudge. I received a quick response and with the new hints I worked through those two and got good geochecks. That just left #12, the hardest of them all.

I had looked at #12 off and on over the last few years and nothing seemed to make sense. But sometimes what appears to be a lost cause turns to gold. This time when I picked it up I quickly came up with a promising idea. After some playing with my method for less than 30 minutes, I had a successful geocheck!

Today I headed south from my home in Loveland to seek out the containers for the seven caches. I mapped out a path before leaving home and it worked out very well. I was able to find all seven containers! Only #12 gave me trouble but I did find it.

Thanks -TwoCs- for this great series of challenging puzzles!!!
