There has been some minor controversy, lately, about puzzle caches, and their role in geocaching. While I appreciate a good puzzle cache, I don't care for those that require, or are based on, some esoteric, or technical knowledge that the general public is not readily privy to. To do them, one is required to do some research, just to be able to get started. With that in mind, I am placing one that leans almost entirely on geocaching, and general, knowledge.
As you might guess from the title, this is the last cache of a new series of 9 caches. I'm placing it first for a big challenge, and because the other caches will contain clues for finding this one. There is a substantial prize for FTF on this cache. The prize, however, in order to stimulate some drama and excitement, will decrease by 10% of the original value each time a new episode is placed. This will happen about every 5-9 days or so. All of the caches will be hidden in fairly classic ways but with coords that will make you work a bit. You'll have to keep your mind open and pay attention to details because clues will be everywhere. The above coords will not take you to the cache. There are eight incorrect numbers in them. Episodes 1-8 will fix one number each, if you are observant. Let me make it clear, though, that there will be enough clues on this page, and in the logs, to find the finale, though not easily.
May I also make it totally obvious where new caches eventually may emerge; try every road yonder, initially.
