Geocache Description:

This cache is (very) loosely based on Episode 11, series 3 of The Sopranos, Pine Barons. Watching the episode will not help you find the cache, however it may give you some inspiration when writing up your cache log.

The posted co-ordinates are the location of a car park, from where you will be able to consider your plan of attack (all the information you will require is contained within the cache description below), or co-ordinate your search.


Tony Soprano, head of the DiMeo family, has sent Paul “Paulie Walnuts” Gualtieri and Christopher “Chris” Moltisanti to make a collection on behalf of Silvio “Sil” Dante. The collection is from an associate of the Russian mob, a man named Valery. Chris and an ill tempered Paulie, reluctantly depart on the errand.

 

On arrival, the collection is made, however Paulie’s temper gets the better of him, and a struggle ensues between himself and Valery. During the ruckus Valery is rendered unconscious, and in fact assumed dead by Chris and Paulie. The body is wrapped in a carpet and bundled into the boot of Paulie’s car.

 

Chris and Paulie decide that they will dispose of the body in a nearby but seldom visited piece of forest known as Pine Barons. On arrival it is found that Valery is far from dead, and is unsurprisingly, in quite a belligerent mood. Chris and Paulie decide that they can save themselves a little hard labour if they put the Russian to work digging his own grave. Unfortunately for the pair Valery is not all he seems. Paulie later discovers that Valery was a member of an elite Russian Commando unit, and once single handedly killed 16 Czechoslovakians (sic). During the grave digging Valery clock’s Chris with the shovel and overpowers Paulie, before escaping into the snow covered forest, in little more than his bathrobe.

 

Chris and Paulie, quickly regain their composure and take off in pursuit of their quarry, indiscriminately shooting after him. Chris claims to have hit the Russian in the head, however they are unable to find anything more than the odd foot print and a few bloodstains.

 

Chris and Paulie might be a pair of street smart wise guys, however they are seriously lacking in bush craft, and Valery soon evades their pursuit. Worse still the pair find themselves hopelessly lost, in the snow covered forest, ill prepared and with night fast approaching.

 

Paulie manages to make very brief phone contact with Tony. Tony is not happy about this development, but resolves to come to their aid. Tony unable to secure the services of Bobby Baccalieri, a skilled outdoorsman, calls upon you to help him track down his two missing Capos. As a mere associate of the family, you see this as your opportunity to impress Tony, and attain your life long dream of becoming a “Made Man”.
