There is absolutely nothing wrong with the coordinates above. In fact, they are purposely listed to designate a spot in the middle of Interstate 40 to draw your attention to this cache when traveling through this area. But, if you want to find said cache, I don't recommend stopping there; I suggest solving the Wherigo instead.
This series allows everyone to experience Wherigo caches and all are "Play Anywhere" cartridges. A Wherigo-compatible device is not required; a PC may be used. Upon completion of this quiz, you will be given the geocache coordinates and a hint for the bonus cache.
This is a short game of hangman which takes about 5 minutes from start to finish. Or does it? It all depends on you and your knowledge of the subject. Sure you can cheat, but the difficulty level is set to reflect the proud cachers who choose to use their brains... not their computers.
Caches in this series:
Tennessee Hangman Wherigo #1: Constellations
Tennessee Hangman Wherigo #2: Flags
Tennessee Hangman Wherigo #3: Presidents
Tennessee Hangman Wherigo #4: States
Tennessee Hangman Wherigo #5: Bonus Cache
This is a play-anywhere cartridge and, as such, can be played... well, anywhere; even at home from your favorite chair. Use of a Wherigo-compatible device is not required. The game may also be played using the emulator tool in the Wherigo Builder program.* The cartridge may be played for geocaches in several states. As the cartridge starts, you choose from a list of states with Wherigo geocaches included in this cartridge. For another state, you may restart and play the cartridge again.
The game cartridge can be downloaded here: Hangman Constellations. The final location is within 2 miles of the listed coordinates. You will be looking for a small, round, camoed container.
This Wherigo is part of a project created by marcipanek. The idea is to have geocaches scattered all over the USA that could be found using this single Wherigo cartridge. Below is the map of states currently included in this cartridge.
*64 bit machines may require two additional patches for the emulator to work properly; info on those can be found on Geocaching forum thread 1 and forum thread 2.
Enjoy, happy hunting, and good luck spilling your ink. Cache ya later!

As the geocache owner, I ensure these links are to a local geocaching group that is active in the community and contributing to geocaching in positive ways. These links have not been checked by Geocaching HQ or by the reviewer.
Logging Etiquette: Geocache hiders sometimes go through a great deal of planning and effort to create and place their caches. As a result, they'd like to hear your feedback on whether you liked or disliked any aspect of the hide, the journey, or the location, or if you feel that some cache maintenance is required. Single word, acronym, or "copy and paste" logs may be easier when you have a lot of caches to log, but it doesn't tell the hider or other finders anything about your adventure (or lack thereof) in finding the cache. Please keep this in mind when entering your log.
Travel Bug Etiquette: Cachers pay good money for Travel Bugs and Geocoins. If you take a TB or GC from a cache, PLEASE ensure it is correctly logged in and out. If you take one that still shows it is somewhere else, please be patient before "grabbing" the item; it does not get its mileage by being grabbed before the last person to drop it has had time to log their placement. This is particularly important on busy and new caches. If you have an issue with a bug or coin, please e-mail or message the owner through their profile and advise them of the issue; they will be pleased to hear from you.
