Geocache Description:

The cache is not at the posted coordinates.  You must solve the puzzle to find Sought and Found’s Golden Ammo Can! This cache is placed with specific permission from USC-Aiken.

This Golden Ammo Can is placed in honor of our good friends Sought and Found’s 1000 cache find milestone.
 
Sought and Found learned about geocaching when we coordinated with them for approval of our Wonders of the Universe cache.  Since then, they have become great practitioners and ambassadors for the sport of caching.  They have found a geocache on every day of the year – including February 29.  They have found caches in 21 states in the United States, and in 10 countries around the world.  They have placed outstanding caches in our local area – and even have an EarthCache on the island of Tahiti!  Many of the friends and family they have introduced to caching have gotten their own accounts and are seeking, finding, and hiding caches of their own.

It’s a great pleasure to honor the caching team of Sought and Found with an ammo can in the woods.  But we couldn’t make it too easy! 

We know Sought and Found likes word puzzles.  So, hidden in the text below is the information needed to complete these coordinates and find Sought and Found’s Golden Ammo Can:

Caching Ode to Sought and Found

Out in the woods
                Not on safari
                           Every puzzle like the Sphinx
                                                No easy solutions
In this familiar locale
                Nosing about like a subject of Pavlov
                           Eagle eyes on the scene
                                                Sought and Found search for a sign
Earning gold and a smile
                Victory needs no alibi
                           Every major milestone deserves something big
                                                No protactinium for your thousandth
Nothing but the golden best!


Please park at the convocation center parking lot at N33 34.430 W081 46.520

Congratulations to SOUGHT and FOUND for being FTF!!!
