The second in a series of caches based on some of my favourite
movies.
Upon returning to the United States, Rambo has difficulty
adjusting to civilian life and wanders the country as a drifter for
almost a decade. In December 1980, Rambo travels to the fictional
town of Hope, Washington, in search of a Special Forces buddy named
Delmore Barry. He then travels to Hope in the attempt to find a
diner and maybe a temporary job. However, the over-confident town
sheriff Will Teasle (Brian Dennehy), does not welcome Rambo,
judging the military hero negatively because of his long hair and
scruffy look. Rambo disobeys the sheriff's order to stay away from
Hope and is promptly charged for vagrancy and subject to harassment
from the deputies.
The harassment triggers flashbacks of Rambo's traumatic memories
of his torture at the hands of the North Vietnamese when he was a
prisoner of war. Rambo fights his way out of the sheriff's
department with his bare hands and makes his way into the
wilderness. A manhunt ensues. The sheriff and his deputies cannot
win against Rambo in the forest and he deals with them efficiently
but doesn't kill any of them. The Washington State Patrol and about
200 members of the Washington National Guard are called in to
assist.
Colonel Samuel Trautman (played by Richard Crenna), the former
commanding officer of Rambo's old Special Forces unit, arrives in
Hope and warns that continuing the manhunt is dangerous to the
authorities, as Rambo is too experienced to be captured easily in
the wilderness where he thrives.
The authorities reject Trautman's advice and continue the
manhunt, and Rambo's subsequent rampage culminates in the
destruction of the sheriff's office and most of the town's main
street.
To locate this cache you will need to watch the movie and gather
the following information:
As Rambo walks into the town of Hope there is a date on the right
hand support pole of the Welcome sign = ABCD
What is the number on the tailgate of the Army truck that Rambo
steals = EFGHIJ
The cache is located at:
S34 4E.(F)(A+C)(E-F)
E138 4C.G (I-C)(J-E)
Bring a camera as the views are great
