Geocache Description:

“Curses! Foiled Again!” is what Snidely Whiplash would say when his villainous plans to harm Nell were thwarted by our hero Dudley Do-Right. Of course, “curses” was a euphemism for what would have been bleeped out by the censors. Finding a good place to hide this cache was so “darn” frustrating, it just made me want to scream “#$~ !@>#$# !!*~%)>@#*”.

This puzzle cache is not hidden at the posted coordinates, nor are the coords the best parking place. Obey all parking restrictions and no trespassing signs. Do not cross fences or bushwack.

You must bring a trade item for the cache. Some advanced preparation is needed because each item must be “gift wrapped” in aluminum foil, in theme with the cache title. Taking and leaving an item is like the popular “White Elephant” gift exchange game: The gift giver is anonymous, the recipient may not peek inside the wrapping before selecting a gift, and the recipient is stuck owning whatever he/she takes unless they can convince another player to trade for whatever they got. Tell us what you received!

Your gift must fit inside the cache which is 9”x6”x2.5” size. There are some spare sheets of foil in the bottom of the cache. The cache is primed with some nice stuff, and some white elephants.
