Geocache Description:

THIS IS A PUZZLE CACHE, SO, THE CACHE IS NOT LOCATED AT THE GIVEN COORDINATES.

This is a GAG21 cache, as such, the cache should not be found until after 6:00 p.m., May 9th. If you do, a band of angry hobbit dudes will pierce your body, in a very uncomfortable location, with one hundred red hot rings.


There are two lists, one for the NORTH and the other for the WEST. The NORTH list has the word RING before the word or phrase, and the WEST has it after.

The number in brackets after the scrambled letters, indicates how many words are in the phrase; the word RING is not included in the word count or any of the scrambled words.

Each scrambled "RING" word or phrase, is missing one letter. Once you have identified the missing letter, digital root ONLY that letter.

Each section, North and West will reveal a seven digit number.

And 1939301 to your NORTH number and 4755823 to your WEST number to get the cache coordinates.

I was planning to archive this cache on DECEMBER 31, 2020. However, because of the Covid, I have been asked to extend the date the 2014 puzzles will be archived. So, the new date that the 2014 puzzles will be archived will be July 16, 2022. Thanks for your interest in this cache. Cheers and happy caching, buddysally.
