+Max and 99 Posted May 3, 2020 Author Share Posted May 3, 2020 I had to start over early on when I misunderstood the order of waymark publications. I deleted part of the message, thinking I'd never find two "X" waymarks, but then just at the right time another one showed up in the news so the message is as intended from the very beginning. A big thank you to everyone who worked on the puzzle. It is much appreciated! Link to comment
vulture1957 Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 (edited) Working 99's puzzles has gotten me to looking at the Puzzle Caches around my home. They all seem way to easy, or way to hard. I'll stick with waymaking. Too Hard: I am Groot Edited May 3, 2020 by vulture1957 added link to cache 1 1 Link to comment
