  • Requested GC1PD6X Quincunx 5 โ€” The End to be archived

    This checkin to GC1PD6X Quincunx 5 โ€” The End reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. With others in the series believed to be or confirmed missing, it's now probably impossible for anybody to find this cache.

    This checkin to GLDZMFHN Kinkering Congs Their Titles Take reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Fanatic cache and a wonderfully fun puzzle. Was unclear to begin which bit of the numbers I should have been using, but a little trial and error sussed it. TNLN, TFTC!
