Noodle? or Toodle? Multi-Cache

This cache has been archived.

globalgirl: Guess it's about time to put this sweet puppy fully to rest. Too many wpts have wandered - too often, and the final box has now gone bye-bye entirely.

A good concept though, I think - offering folks the option of noodling or toodling, so likely I'll reincarnate it at some point - across town amid my new geosandbox in Left Seattle.

Geocache Description:

Personally I favor a bit of puzzling to earn my cache desserts.  But some prefer to simply go for it - no riddles, no rhymes, just lead-me-to-it-already kinda folk.  Never let it be said that we don't try to please the masses - so here's a little ditty with something for everybody.

Ambivalence aside, you have a clear choice.  Choose “Noodle” and get set for a bit of a brain teaser.  Nothing evil mind you, but nonetheless a little something likely to give you pause...  Solve it, and you’ll go straight to the prize.

And for the less intrepid, the sure but steady, there's Toodle - a slow but safe bet.  No riddles to solve, but instead you’ll dawdle your way through a number of wpts to reach the prize.

Noodle is for the free-spirited, the reckless, the brave.  Toodle is for the wary, the prudent, the staid.  Heck, if you’ve a geo-pal or a group - why not try both, and see who races to the treasure first?

Should you choose Noodle and end up bewildered, you can always revert to Toodle, of course.  In any case, do please note in your log whether you Noodled or Toodled (or both!) to reach the cache.  Wpt hides for either choice range from friendly to devilish - though I can assure that no bushes are ever involved.

The final cache is a small Lock 'n Lock - filled with trinkets for trading.  As you fumble for the goodies, you may want to take note of the wee code letters on the lid underside - they might just come in handy in some future GG hide.  Oh, and while you're lolling there at ground zero, smugly giddy from your righteous success, do be sure to pause amid the serenity, take a whiff of the scenteds, and enjoy the lovely view of Rainier.

Park hours:  May - Labor Day 4 am - 11:30 pm;
Labor Day - April 30th 4 am - 10 pm

Please take care to gently remove and return all hides as you found them, and be alert for muggles at all locales.
