Geocache Description:

Placed as a quick park-n-grab prior to the 2007 Texas Challenge, this is a micro so bring your own pen.

In 1971, ABC debuted a TV western about two outlaws who saw the error of their ways and decided to go straight. Known on wanted posters everywhere, Jed 'Kid' Curry and Hannibal Heyes took aliases.

As Thaddeus Jones and Joshua Smith they worked secretly for the territorial governor. Only trouble was that none of the rest of the good guys knew about the arrangement so they kept chasing our brave duo.

Unfortunately, the series suffered a blow when actor Pete Duel aka Hannibal Heyes aka Joshua Smith committed suicide right at the height of the show’s popularity.

This location reminded me of the show…can you figure out why? Even if you figure it out…keep the secret to yourself. If you email me offline I will periodically post our list of trivia champions. Either way you do NOT need to know the answer to log a find. Simply find the logbook and sign your name.
