Geocache Description:

This series is a tribute to John Wayne's film career. We have enjoyed MANY hours watching him in both western and military films.

Micro cache, bring your own pencil. Watch out for desert critters.

Marion Mitchell Morrison (born Marion Robert Morrison; May 26, 1907 – June 11, 1979), better known by his stage name John Wayne, was an American film actor, director and producer. An Academy Award-winner, Wayne is the biggest box office draw of all time. An enduring American icon, he epitomized rugged masculinity and is famous for his demeanor, including his distinctive calm voice, walk, and height.
Wayne was born in Winterset, Iowa but his family relocated to the greater Los Angeles area when he was four years old. He found work at local film studios when he lost his football scholarship to USC as a result of a bodysurfing accident. Initially working for the Fox Film Corporation, he mostly appeared in small bit parts. His acting breakthrough came in 1939 with John Ford’s Stagecoach, making him an instant star. Wayne would go on to star in 142 pictures, primarily typecast in Western films.
