Geocache Description:

This cache has been a community effort from it's inception. It was first listed as a hide by Pulaski, PatLes, & MissJenn. Since then is has been adopted and maintained be several other cachers to keep it going. Due to visitor center renovations, the multi-puzzle has been slightly altered from the original format. All other text is from original cache listing.

Set aside time to visit Middle Creek Wildlife Management Area while the Visitor Center is open. If in doubt, call them at 717-733-1512. The name of this cache stems from this thread and this poll. Basically, "booty nuggets" is our preferred term for all the stuff inside a cache. The contents of this one are all donations from the super-generous, good-looking, food-bearing, high-spirited, frisbee-dodging, nettle-stung attendees of the South Central PA Cachers Picnic.

THEY DONATED: the huge ammo box; rain ponchos; little tiny green tikis; tickets to Harrisburg Senators baseball game (expires 9/2/02); safety vest; Jeep hat; sing-along cd; several high quality multi-tools; tissues; keychains; freez pak; marbles; 1st aid kit; Where's George $1s; Cuban peso; golf ball; sticky pad; Jungle Mission pez dispenser; lip balm on a leash; a frog; book on frogs; Wings of Feathers; whistle; kazoo; compass; mini spoon; parrots; hand sanitizer; bottle opener; bandana; chain mail ball; playdoh; batteries; a Write-In-The-Rain log book; blanket; ruler; screwdriver set; tire gauge; hand warmers; various pins; shoe polish kit; Yoda; earbuds; and finally, the North To Alaska travel bug. Whew! Thank you very much to everyone who donated these. One of the ponchos is now designated as a ground cloth, so you have a spot to lay out and admire all the booty nuggets in front of you.

  1. Go to the coordinates listed above. Find “The Deputy Tree” in front of the entrance.
  2. Find the date that is listed on the plaque which corresponds to the code below:
  3. May ABBC
  4. Using the formula you just figured out above, decrypt these coordinates:
  5. N4C A5.BC2 W76 A3.648
  6. You will need to hike Millstone Trail to access these coordinates.
  7. Find the cache packed full of booty nuggets!

This 6,254-acre wildlife area has been possible thanks in part to PA hunters, whose $$ spent on licenses and hunting gear provide the bulk of the working capital for the PA Game Commission. During hunting season, wear your blaze orange as these ARE State Game Lands.

EXTRA CREDIT: What animal has been clocked at speeds around 200 mph while stooping? (Just like in the TV show Whose Line Is It Anyway?, the points mean absolutely nothing.)

DISCLAIMERS: You must be present to win. Keep cool; process promptly. Post office will not deliver without postage. List was current at time of printing. At participating locations only. If condition persists, consult your physician. No user-serviceable parts inside. Freshest if eaten before date on carton.
