Wow, that's great. Congratulations to the finder! Too far for me to travel to get it. I think it was in Newton Hill Park, in Worcester, MA. At the SE corner of the park, the Green Trail and the Blue Trail intersect. The stone was hidden like the picture shows, close to that intersection. The bike racks are at the start of the Green trail over on Park Ave.

For the state, the only thing I thought might work, was using the story in the scroll. When he describes sitting under a tree and having to cross a body of water, I took that to mean the general area and therefore the state.

What does the solution to JCDSKEOPICW mean? Razorback - I took it the other way around. How were we supposed to deduce the key for JCD... to give us the answer who is the subject of hunt3? All of your other points im with you 100% stvwz I'm not sure if I'm with you. I used the story on the scroll to figure out the President, and used his name as the key for the cipher, just as on scroll's 1 and 2. That produced a deciphered message, which has one word, and a partial repeat of that same word. That deciphered message makes no sense to me, so far.

I'm ready for an early hint from Jenny. Anything on any of these would be great! The 2 black hash marks, upper left corner. The ouroboros, crossed keys, balance, Star of David. YVCPHFHXDEQMK. What does the solution to JCDSKEOPICW mean?

Apple Island, in Boston, just north of Quincy, MA.

I'm just guessing now. If not religion, maybe a tie in to Freemasonry. I found all 3 symbols in Masonic symbols. Maybe a lodge or two near the park?

I thought the ouroboros might stand for Gnosticism, and go with the other religions on the scroll.
YVCP still eludes me.

It wasn't me and I want to see the solution. I really thought it was in Maine, until the Hot Springs, Hodaddy solution came out. If it was in Hot Springs, I'm going to feel pretty foolish for not following through there. Now, I'm trying to finish MW's Scroll 3 and 4. I really like these hunts because they make sense. I can't go get them because of the distance, but they sure are fun. My hat's off to ever found the flute.

If qigongbaby comes through on the YVC puzzle, I would be happy to share anything I have for a hint on that one. And I will come through.

Uh oh, I thought BNC ALAE was an anagram for BALANCE since it's sitting on the balance. I didn't consider it was a cipher too.

In that chapter, he talks about St-Germain, a French liqueur. St. Germain was developed by Cooper's Spirits Co., headquartered in New York City. I just noted this as another clue for New York City, one of many.

The one I am stuck on is 'YVCPHFHXDEQMK'. It's probably a simple one, but I just don't see it. If anyone could provide a hint, I could try to help on something else.

Maybe I'm doing the numbers wrong, but I got 'N O I T A R E D O M'.

The number code was no help because she gave that clue at least 4 other times, unless, it's because it's backwards?

Yes, I figured out who the stranger is, and used his name to solve the Vignere cipher. But, that doesn't mean the state is evident. You can assume the state is New York, but he visited many states, and he came from Virginia. The state isn't evident like it was for the first two scrolls.
