Geocache Description:

The coordinates above are not for the cache location. The cache is within 3 miles of posted location.


 
 
A few years ago, someone discovered that if you play Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of the Moon" album while watching the film "The Wizard of Oz", there are a remarkable number of moments where the film and the album appear to correspond with each other. I will not speculate here on the state of consciousness, altered or otherwise, that was likely a requirement for making this discovery.

 

For those interested in investigating this phenomena themselves, Search YouTube for "wizard of oz pink floyd". Also, here is a list of the noted synchronicities

 


The cache is a log-only camo micro - bring your own pen.

It is in a very public place, choosing a time when you will be less likely to be observed is recommended, and stealth will be required. The cache is generally winter-friendly, depending on snow amount.
