Geocache Description:

Geocachers, you have been summoned by the good citizens
on the east side of the island to put one of the most notorious
urban legends of our time to rest.


The Infamous Professor Nirishkapoop

If you haven't already heard it, this is how the legend goes.

Exactly how does a full-sized limo and six high school kids vanish into thin air? Was the disappearance of Professor Nirishkapoop connected to this in some way? Or did he just go back into hiding and is still at large? As a result of all these unanswered questions, the locals believe that it is not safe to go near Koko Head Crater at night for fear of meeting a similar unexplained fate.

You must understand why we have turned to you Geocachers. You are the last of a dying breed. Well, okay, maybe a few of those we sent in to investigate will return but we are losing hope. So pack up your fearless bad selves and help us free the good people of Hawaii Kai from the grasp of this local urban legend.


1. Equipment Needed: GPS, high-powered flashlight, binoculars, hiking shoes, and long pants. A big stick or baseball bat might be useful but not required.
2. The mystery of what did the Professor do with the Limo is intended to be solved at night If you try it during the day please do not share your hardships here, you were asking for it. Allow 2+ hours to complete. Park closes at 11:00pm.
3. You will be following symbols, using waypoints, procuring tools to help you along your way to the final. Often the direct route is not the best choice and "most" of the stages are right off or adjacent to a well traveled trail. A full on bushwhack in complete darkness is never really a good idea is it?
4. While a general understanding of the urban legend linked in this page will aid you solving the mystery and ultimately finding the cache, it is not necessary to bring with you on the hunt.
5. Group caching is encouraged and will be an advantage in more than one juncture. All spoiler photos, especially of the final, will be deleted.

Disclaimer: This cache is rated PG-13 (parental digression advised). Pregnant women, cachers with pacemakers, or people who are bothered by things that go bump in the night should consider another cache.
