Geocache Description:

Fourth in the Ring Quest series

This is the fourth cache of Ring Quest, a twenty-cache series inspired by J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings.

For more information about this series, see the description for the first cache:
Ring Quest I: The Nine: Black Riders.

Ring Quest IV: The Nine: The Shadows

“Nine he gave to Mortal Men, proud and great, and so ensnared them. Long ago they fell under the domination of the One, and they became Ringwraiths, shadows under his great Shadow, his most terrible servants.”

Given form only through the attire of black cloaks and hauberks of silver mail, The Nines' original forms were completely gone and invisible to mortal eyes. Their hypnotic eyes could be plainly distinguished from their dark clothing, and in a rage they appeared in a hellish fire. Mortal men could not touch them, absent special weapons or tools of the ancient Elves.

You are looking for a small black pill holder. The log sheet contains coordinates to a nearby marker with information needed to find the final cache of the One Ring.

At the coordinates printed on the log sheet in this cache you can literally stand in a hall of stones. On the outside of the northern wall, in the upper left corner, appears the date, Feb G, 20HX. Record the values of G and H for later use finding the One Ring.
