Geocache Description:

Cache is not at the listed coordinates. You will need to figure out the doctor's name for each of the following 15 questions and then do some figuring to come up with the coordinates.

We had fun putting this together and hopefully you will have just as much fun solving it! 

The cache is a regular size camo container with plenty of room for trades.

There are many thorns on the ground at the cache location, so appropriate footwear is suggested.
