"Casino Royale (1954-TV)" is the first unofficial Bond TV movie. Gregory Ratoff bought a six month rights and paid Ian Fleming $1000 in 1954 to adapt his first novel, "Casino Royale", into an one-hour television adventure.
Twelve months later, Gregory Ratoff bought the entire rights (paid originally $1000 and then an additional $6000) to Ian Fleming's novel "Casino Royale". After Ratoffs' death, his widow sold the rights to Charles Feldman for $75,000 who would go on to make "Casino Royale" (1967).
The "Casino Royale (1954)" episode was lost for a couple of decades until film historian Jim Schoenberger located it in 1981.
"Casino Royale" has been produced in 1954, 1967 and in 2006.

In Portland and the Columbia Gorge you will find 30+ James Bond geocaches that are Traditional,
Multi-Caches, Letterboxes, Puzzles and a Wherigo. All of these make for a great adventure.
Those above are only a few of the 007 geocaches in the area.
The cache hide is not particularly spectacular, but the location is interesting. You might have driven by the area and probably not even noticed!
Update 11/3/19: Temporary cache 25-30 NW after figuring out the puzzle.
Congratulations for FTF by eyekwilt2 and PDXJim!
