Geocache Description:

And the FTF goes to our galactic hitchhikers JMMartn!!!! Congratulations!!!!

You will need TOTT

The cache is no where near the railroad tracks, don’t even think about it!!!!

This is the story of a lost Geocacher with his trusty towel in one hand and the best selling book in the universe in the other. 

What book? Why the towel?

Well, if you know the story of Deep Thought, what it is and why it was built; you have a head start.

Douglas Adams wrote five books in this series and the first book was “The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy,” in 1978 it was a radio series, there was a British tv series and many light years later it inspired a movie.

My final words to you, if you hitched a galactic ride and still the cache you can’t find, as it says “in big friendly letter on the cover” of the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, DONT PANIC...there’s a hint. 

But you better study up for the hint to be useful. 

By the way, the towel??? “A towel, it says, is about the most massively useful thing an interstellar hitchhiker can have. Partly it has great practical value.”
