For additional caches in the G.O. Joe series, please visit Living in a Van Down By the River(GC4PDFR), Big Bucket(GC4QTQ7), A Trip to the Big City(GC4RC8A), and that pleasant little stroll in the woods called Home for the Holidays #1-14 plus Bonus.
To complete this new series of challenges, you will need to hike over 30 miles! You will need to remember to make note of the secret codes you find along the way. There will be ticks, snakes, skunks, manbears, poison ivy, stickers, wet feet, chocolate chip cookies, and hidden graveyards. You will sometimes need to crawl, climb, wade, or swim. This will not be a pleasant little stroll in the woods. And, most of all, please remember that Liberty Reservoir is a very active hunting area during the winter months so please use all proper precautions.
The last we heard from G.O. Joe, he had discovered all the geocaches in the Morgan Run area and had moved his van, and his family, to greener pastures, or so we were told. Actually, he had wasted away all of their life's savings on geocaching equipment and had to sell the family van to buy some new tupperware. Their only mode of transportation these days was a beat-up old raft which they used to float down the river one day where they finally ended up lost in Liberty Reservoir. These are just some of the adventures they had...
You never know what fellow cachers you might bump into while wandering around Liberty Reservoir. One day, Joe saw a strange man, who looked suspiciously like the Liberty ManBear, hunting around a big pile of rocks with a Garmin and whistling a strange tune. Joe kept his distance, not wanting to alarm the stranger, but kept watching him to see if he unearthed some tupperware. The strange man just kept searching and whistling and the strange tune just kept getting weirder and weirder. It was like nothing Joe had ever heard before!
Finally, Joe couldn't take anymore and confronted the stranger. "What is that strange tune you keep whistling and what the heck are you looking for?" he asked.
"Well, right now I'm about midway through the third side of Tales From Topographic Oceans and I'm looking for the meaning of life...couldn't you tell?" the man replied.
"What the fudge is that and what have you been smoking?" asked Joe.
"It's prog, man...what have you been living under a rock?" the man said with a chuckle.
