Geocache Description:




            What the heck does "A Bustle In

                    Your Hedgerow" mean?

            What the heck does "To Be A

            Rock And Not To Roll" mean?

                 For that matter, what does the song mean?

                   ..... and more importantly, does it matter!

           The cache is a decorated 4 1/2 inch Lock 'n Lock

                 close to the "Stairway" and containing:

  •                      Cache Specific Geopins
  •                            Log and Pencils

           Hint: Go For A Roll In A Hedgerow!

          Please Open the Cache in Place and then Re-attach Securely.


             Please do not include photos of the cache

                                     in your logs


    Please add your interpretation of this "Rock Classic" to your logs. Our favorite, is that it reflects "the unmediated pulsations of the reptile brain".

Alternate Lyrics by KBer 12/1/2007

There's a cacher who's sure all that matters is finds

And he’s searching for the Stairway To Heaven

When he gets there he knows, that the GPSr will show

With a search he can get what he came for.

Ooh, ooh, and he's finding the Stairway To Heaven.

There's a disturbance on the ground but he wants to be sure

'Cause you know sometimes hides can be confusing.

In a tree by the brook, or a rock pile by hill

Sometimes all of our searches are misgiven.

Ooh, it makes me wonder,

Ooh, it makes me wonder.

There's a feeling I get when I look to the west,

and I see a bunch of twigs piled together

In my thoughts I have seen caches hides such as these,

And the voices of those who stand laughing.

Ooh, it makes me wonder,

Ooh, it really makes me wonder.

And it's written that soon if I decrypt the ciphertext

Then the hint will lead us to salvation.

And a new search will dawn, for those who loaded their GPS’s

And the forests will echo with more caches.

If there's a bustle in your hedgerow, Sue&Barry probably hid a cache,

It's just a stage for a search that will not end.

Yes, there are two paths you can go, but S&B will let you know

There's still time to trip and let your senses roam.

And it makes me wonder.

Your head is pounding and it won’t find the cache, in case you don't know,

The hiders are mocking your actions,

Dear cacher, can you hear the wind blow, and did you know

That the cache lies by the Stairway To Heaven.
