Geocache Description:

THE ABOVE COORDINATES ARE MOSTLY BOGUS!
... but they will put you in the park where the cache is hidden. :)


When asked by my lovely wife Wendy (bcat) why I was spending so much time in front of the PC with a ton of Geocaching pages open, I replied that I was addicted to making puzzle caches. She thought about this for a while, then thrilled me by asking me to help her make a puzzle cache of her own. If anyone knows their Harry Potter, it is she. She has been on top of the Potter World since the first Rowling release.

Wendy has devised these questions to test the knowledge of other Potter Heads. She has informed me that the questions will not be solvable by those who have just simply seen the movies. Books must be cracked to continue. Each question must be answered correctly in order to derive the final coordinates where the cache is hidden. You will take each correct answer and extract certain specified letters. Each letter corresponds with a one-digit numerical value as specified below in the master key. Best of luck. :)

The cache is hidden at N 30 2A.BCD, W 097 4E.FGH
