Geocache Description:


Larry lives north of Nashville. He is not a geologist, but he likes to collect rocks and minerals. Mineral specimens of Apatite, Calcite, and Fluorite are some of his favorites. Curly’s collection is much smaller, but he still likes to go hunting whenever Larry calls. When construction crews were blasting to build the new shopping center west of town, they were disappointed to find just a bunch of Gypsum, and then more Gypsum and a little Orthoclase Feldspar. Moh has the largest collection. He is the known expert in the group and often helps Larry and Curly identify their finds. The guys aren't comedians, but they thought it was funny to name their rockhound group the 3 Stooges.

The posted coordinates will take you to the middle of the nearby public parking lot, but the cache is not hidden at that spot. You need to solve the puzzle to find the cache which is just a short walk down the trail. Park closes at dark. Please don't post spoilers.

Congrats to caverdon for FTF!
