		Silverback Cipher

	Silverback hunters should be familiar with the “pigpen” or masonic cipher, which is a simple substitution cipher exchanging letters for symbols based on a grid. This cipher can be used to decrypt directions and secret codewords at FBZ geocaches!

	Current GOAL: Your TOP SECRET mission (codename Revolt) is to further this Special Reconnaissance (SR) evidence through any means possible to help it reach its destination at N 37° 50.758 W 121° 56.068 (GCWBRF), the "Return to Planet of the Apes" California Command Center (formerly Devil's Spoon) in Mt. Diablo State Park. About this item: SGTF speculates this artwork featuring a gun-toting Caesar on horseback leading his apes in battle against a band of surviving humans in post-apocalyptic San Francisco was featured as the promotional poster for Dawn of the Planet of the Apes movie in 2014. Per SGTF's AOR under Operation Silverback, operatives to help forward this materials item to the GCWBRF cache for further exploration have begun.
