Geocache Description:

This cache was originally a very elaborate puzzle. We were devastated, it couldn't be posted. As the final of what was 15 micros and a puzzle, it still says, "The Ferocious Fifteen."

The "curse" represents exclamation of, and the cursed efforts wasted, and of course, the "legend.."

Hubbard Park in Meriden has beautiful cliffside views and views of the Merimere Reservoir and Castle Craig which, is spectacular in the fall. The bridge is also one of my favorite spots. There is an old park legend called, “The Black Dog of the Hanging Hills.” The legend of the Black Dog has been told by those living near the Hanging Hills of Meriden for over 100 years. Those who claim to have seen the dog describe it as a supernatural creature who supposedly leaves no footprints and remains completely silent as it travels along the ridges of Meriden’s Hubbard Park. As it says; “If you meet the Black Dog once, it shall be for joy; if twice, it shall be for sorrow; and the third time shall bring death.” – W.H.C. Pynchon
