Geocache Description:

No, I didn't write the books, but I approve of the concept.  Reminds me a little bit of a book that I DID write, though...

The cache IS NOT at the posted coordinates.


Will meets a strange vagrant that tells him the truth about "capping", and a place in The White Mountains for free men. Will and Henry decide to leave their village to find it. 

I remember watching these back in college and thinking that they were fairly well done, given the technology available to program and movie producers in England at that time.

N 29 50.A47 W 082 20.B38

To get the correct coordinates, you need the 4th number of the year that the show began (A) and the 3rd number of the year in which the show supposedly took place (B).

Then the fun begins!  Don't let the Tripods see you!
