This cache has been archived.

NYPaddleCacher: As it was confirmed that the first stage was missing and that the final conflicts with a potential new placement in the area I'm going to archive this one.

Geocache Description:


Derived from an ancient Egyption word, Pesedjet, Ennead refers to a grouping of typically 9 gods

The Ennead consisted of the Osirian Gods: Atum, Shu, Tefnut, Geb, Nut, Osiris, Isis, Set and Nepthys.

  • Atum - The solar/creator god.
  • Shu - personification of air.
  • Tefnut - personification of moisture.
  • Geb - personification of earth.
  • Nut - personification of sky.
  • Osiris - The first King of Egypt and later god of the underworld.
  • Isis - The first Queen Egypt and goddess of magic, funerary goddess, protector of the King.
  • Set - Brother of Isis, Osiris and later god of chaos.
  • Nepthys - Sister of Osiris and Isis and consort of Set, funerary goddess
  • Geb, Earth, is seperated from Nut, sky by Shu, Air

When presented with the task of creating a multi-cache for the 090909 event, I quickly dismissed the idea of creating a nine-stage multi. Once you've found the first stage you will be searching for a cache which contains a group of nine. You must sign the log sheet to log this cache.
