Geocache Description:

You are looking for a 35mm film can that contains only a log.  Please remember to bring your own writing instrument.

Cachers have been known to stretch the truth now and then when hiding caches or making puzzles such as placing "red herrings" on the cache page or making statements on the cache page that are misleading or that really bends the truth. This cache is dedicated to all the hiders who have made the game so much fun by making the rest of us pull our hair out working puzzles that turnes out to not have anything at all to do with actually finding the true coordinates. That being said, I caution you to be careful what you believe while reading this cache page and working the puzzle.

OOPS!! Red Herring #1
Here is a funny picture that kind of speaks about an untruth. It has nothing hidden in it and is only here because I thought it was funny and really fits the cache theme.



NOTE: The cache is not at the posted coordinates. You must solve the puzzle below in order to obtain the correct coordinates.
