As the owner, I would like to ask that no spoilers or hints to solving this be logged here or passed around to other cachers.
It wouldn't be nearly as much fun if the solution method were given away.

If you've been a cacher for any length of time, you've probably heard of DGS (Dirtbag Geocaching Society). This cache is to highlight some of the DGS members, the Hunks of the Dirtbags.
To begin, I want to share some pictures with you. These are only a few of the members.

No, what you're looking for can't be seen by highlighting the text. I'm sorry. Keep trying though!

but watch out for hidden tb codes...oops, uh, coords!
So, you see, DGS aren't a bad looking bunch of hunks.

And you could see one just about anywhere, anytime!
