FTF this afternoon with estes01!

I worked on the puzzle off and on over the last few days/weeks trying various things to decode it. One of the ideas actually got some reasonable-looking north coordinates but the west would have put the cache in Kansas. I finally hit on the right decoding and got the green light.

Estes01 and I were looking for a hike for today and it was a choice between this and the Heizer Trail. The 8+ miles round trip to the Mineralogical Society cache was a little long but it went quickly and as always the views along Gold Camp are spectacular.

It was a nice quick find and retrieval once we got to GZ. Left a trackable and a favorite point, TFTC!
