Cache is not at posted coordinates. It is within two miles. A nice
little walk in Carney Park, Northborough. Enter through the access
road on West Main Street, parking lot at the end. Very cool
container, custom made! Solve the Lord of the Rings trivia
questions below to unlock the coordinates of the cache.
The cache is located at N 42 AB.CDE W 071 FG.HIJ Each question will
yield a number, which you can substitute into the coordinates. Some
questions will prove to be trickier than others, and we're fairly
certain all answers can be found on the internet with a little work
(if necessary). Obviously a Lord of the Rings expert will solve
this with more ease than others, so it's your time to shine!
A. ___ ring to rule them all
B. The number of letters in the name of Saruman's domain
C. Leben
D. The number of Nazgûl
E. The number of kills Gimli had during the Helm's Deep Battle
minus the number of kills Legolas had
F. According to the movie, the number of arrows it took to kill
Boromir
G. The number of members in the Fellowship
H. The number of letters in Gollum's favorite word
I. The number of hobbits in the Fellowship
J. The number of wizards in Middle Earth
Please be careful with the cache container. It is home made and
could easily break! To open, twist apart. DO NOT YANK. Handle with
care. Not really room for tradeables, BYOP

Cache is located in a swampy area. Probably best to avoid this
cache after heavy rainfall. Sorry about that!
