Geocache Description:

Jumper Cable is named for the 33rd book of the Xanth series by Piers Anthony. . Xanth is a place where "appearance counts for most of reality" and nearly everyone has some magical talent, even if it is only the ability to change the color of popcorn. Mr. Boomdr hid this cache, Way off the beaten path. Not as child friendly terrain as most of our caches.

Jumper Spider, now the size of a pony, and the descendant of the spider who accompanied Magician Dor on his adventure to the past, has been caught by a narrative hook and dropped into the human realm of Xanth. Wishing to return home, he teams up with seven lovely maidens to help restore the link between Xanth and Mundania which had been damaged by the Demon Pluto who is angry for being demoted to a Dwarf Demon and does all he can to stop the group of adventurers from succeeding on their mission.
Jumper rescues Wenda Woodwife, a lush nymph from the front, but hollow from the back; she's actually a shaped shell formed of wood, magically animated. They decide to make common cause, going to see the Good Magician, who can tell Jumper how to return to his realm, and Wenda how to become a real woman with a backside. By the time they reach the Good Magician's castle they are a party of six, all with their special problems. Humfrey gives them an assignment: locate and fix the cable that once connected Xanth to Mundania, something only Jumper can do, with the right help. And he adds two members to the group: the twin lovely nineteen year old princesses/sorceresses Dawn & Eve, who are on probation for quarreling over the same man.
