Geocache Description:

The coordinates shown above are not the coordinates for the cache. The coordinates will bring you to a convenient parking area near the trailhead. Note that there are four caches in this series. The first three are standard hides and this is the last in the series - a Bonus Cache. To get the coordinates for this cache, you will first need to find each of the three main caches, Groucho (GC2EPZZ), Chico (GC2EQ04) and Harpo (GC2EQ0D). This is an ammo can. Enjoy!

The Marx Brothers

Groucho, Chico and Harpo are the most famous of the five Marx Brothers. Two others were also entertainers. Zeppo (second from top) appeared in the first five of the 13 Marx Brothers movies. Gummo (bottom of picture) did not appear in any of the movies. All five brothers started their careers in vaudeville. Zeppo and Gummo went on to careers outside of show business. It should be noted that there was a sixth brother (Manfred) who died at a young age.

This is a bonus cache. In order to find the coordinates for this cache, you must first find Groucho (GC2EPZZ ) Chico (GC2EQ04) and Harpo (GC2EQ09). Look inside the front cover of the log books for each of these caches and you will be able to gather the X's that you need to fill in the coordinates below.
