    I can’t seem to pin down the hiding spot. I have spent way too many hours entering wrong answers. I KNOW I found the right part of my map on topozone and there really are only about 2-3 places it could be, but none of them–or my other shots in the dark—are the right answer.

    I am putting this one to bed for good. I’m sorry. I’m not a good deputy!

    PM sent – I hope it helps.

    And I don’t think apologies are really necessary. You did get all the bad guys after all. 😉

    I cannot believe how many times I entered a different version of that name! I still can’t find the one on my map that was right, but I know I had the right part of the map. Well, now I can sleep. Or at least I can say *this* won’t keep me up at nights.

    Let’s not discuss the four whiffs on caches we’ve had the last couple weeks, though. It sucks to be the only one to whiff on a 1.5 hide! LOL

    I’ve done that more times than I care to remember.

    Glad I could help you get some rest!

    Go figure. My map from topozone didn’t seem to have as much detail as far as names as the little hint just pm’d me. So now I can sleep tonight, thank you, LightningBugsMum!

    You maybe were not zoomed in far enough for the feature to show up

    I guess I needed one of the buttons on the top to be different. It’s weird, I was working with the same map, and actually had changed my map size to make it zero in even more, but I guess I was supposed to be zooming in a different way to get more detail.

    You learn something new every day!

    I never decoded all of the code around the map and I only decoded two of the glyphs before I just decided to search Topozone for a spot that matched. I had a fairly good idea of where to focus my search because of a few pronounced man made features on the map. I found the location and re-sized it within 30 minutes. I was expecting something a little trickier but I was also glad that I was done.
