GCMWZJ The Quest for the Grail (The beginning) (Unknown Cache) in Indiana, United States created by Geode Hunters and The Little Dog Tue

This cache has been archived.

Geode Hunters and The Little Dog Tue: Well, here goes... After much consideration, we belive it best to return these coordinates to the wild and make room for others ideas.

To paraphrase Merlin towards the end of the movie "Excalibur": The days of our kind are numbered. The drive by caches come to outnumber the adventure caches. The spirits of wood and stream grow silent. It's the way of things. Yes... it's a time for shopping center lightpole caches, and their ways.

Thanks for the all the fun and accolades.

Attached are pictures of the log book entries for all to enjoy.

Geocache Description:

The Quest for the Grail.

By finding this page, you have been deemed worthy of being called to participate in this version of the Quest for the Grail. By its very existence, it wants and needs to be found, but as with all Grail Quests, only a few will complete the task.

The Grail has certain powers associated with it. These are :
    * Healing and restorative ability.
    * Communication with God or knowledge of God.
    * Invisibility to evil or unworthy eyes.
    * Immortality.
    * Ability to call those to it who were worthy.

During the quest for the Grail Cache you will find 6 caches by solving 6 puzzles. The first puzzle you will find on this page. The puzzle's result will be the coordinates to be used to find the next cache. In each of the succeeding caches you will find another puzzle to solve and the correct result will be the coordinates leading you to the next cache and puzzle to solve. Search each cache container for clues that might help in solving the next puzzle. This thought may help you avoid retracing your steps!!!!

Your first puzzle:                                                 ------- > A4 <-------

If you were to go to the antipodal coordinates of those listed at the top of this page, you would be closer to:

A) Peking China
B) Kerguelen Island in the Indian Ocean
C) London, England
D) Dolwyddian Castle in North Wales

If you think A) is correct then use the coordinates N38º43.610' W085º22.641' to find the this cache.
If you think B) is correct then use the coordinates N38ºxx.xxx' W085ºxx.xxx' to find the this cache.
If you think C) is correct then use the coordinates N38º44.407' W085º20.683' to find the this cache.
If you think D) is correct then use the coordinates N38º40.019' W085º36.869' to find the this cache.

Only one is correct so choose wisely.

Expect that your feet and possibly ankles will get wet. Also be prepared for slippery surfaces and boulder climbing.

Each found cache contains another puzzle that must be solved to find the next stage.

The next stage is: GCMWZF Arthur, Once & Future King (#2 of the grail quest)
