The Fellowship is a group of 9 members whose names are taken from Lord of the Rings books and movies. For the purposes of this cache, each member of the Fellowship is given a unique number from 1 to 9. A puzzle needs to be solved to arrive at the correct number given each member of the Fellowship. These numbers form the coordinates of the cache, which are then input into the geochecker to check your solution. It is not necessary to have read the books or seen the movies.
