Geocache Description:

The cache is not at the posted coordinates.  

Rainbow or Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow was formed in 1975. 

While the initial incarnation of the band didn't produce many hits, Rainbow did introduce us to Ronnie James Dio.  




Dio was widely hailed as one of the most powerful singers in heavy metal, renowned for his consistently powerful voice.  He is also credited with popularizing the devil horns hand gesture. 

Dio went on to front such bands as Black Sabbath, Heaven and Hell and Dio.  

In order to find this cache you will need to find out how tall the heavy metal God Ronnie James Dio was in inches.

Add this number to the North coordinate listed above and subtract it from the West coordinate.
