Geocache Description:

For just over a year, we have been confused by two Tallahassee cachers with very similar names.

Now, it's a showdown at the GEO Corral ! To find this small ammo can, you'll really have to keep your Lassies straight.

The cache is NOT at the posted coordinates. Don't go there.

THE PLAYERS

THE THEME MUSIC

THE GAME
Tallahassee Lassie and Tallahassee-Lassie will each make claims below about their geocaching history. Start on the center square of the diagram and move as follows:

    If Tallahassee Lassie makes a true statement, move 1 square to the right
    If Tallahassee Lassie makes a false statement, move 1 square to the left
    If Tallahassee-Lassie makes a true statement, move 1 square up
    If Tallahassee-Lassie makes a false statement, move 1 square down

Keep your Lassies straight and move correctly, and you'll end on the square with the true cache coordinates.
