CacheAngel+: Had to pull this one down as the heat on this hillside makes the tools too brittle to use.
Stay tuned... you may be hearing more of this again if I can find a "cooler" spot to set this up.

Aloha and thanks to all who visited!

How Geocaching Works

Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Geocache Description:

This is a two-stage multi which will require you to do a bit of really simple physics in order to get the coordinates for the final. All the materials you need to get the final coordinates are provided for you in stage one. Follow the directions found in the cache and LISTEN CAREFULLY! Please DO NOT BEND the materials in stage one. Replace all items back into the cache carefully without bending and re-hide without anyone seeing you.

WHAT ARE SOUND WAVES?

Sound waves are the vibrations that pass through an object or material. These waves are actually produced when the sound hits with the materials and objects and vibration is created as a result of this collision.

HOW DO SOUND WAVES TRAVEL?

Sound is transmitted by particles (atoms or molecules) in a solid, liquid or gas colliding with each other. It is a wave which is created by vibrating objects and propagated through a medium (solid, liquid or gas) from one location to another. A vibrating source can be sound coming from a drum, speaker of a radio, the mouth of a person (vocal chord), a car engine, a plane above the sky and so on. Although sound is commonly associated in air, sound will readily travel through many materials that are solid, liquid and gas.
