This is a puzzle cache. The cache is not at the listed coordinates. Please solve the puzzle to learn its actual location.
This is one of a pair of puzzle caches. The other member of the set is Pathological Skirt Lifter. Please see the listing for that cache for additional comments.
In this puzzle, I have selected 16 cachers, many of whom you probably know, and invented explanations and/or hints for their geonames. These are intended to be fun and in most cases are no doubt not the real reason a name was selected.
To solve the puzzle, you will need to match each geocacher in the list below with the explanation/hint for their name. Each geocacher name is preceded by a letter. When you identify a match, write the letter associated with the name in the blank in front of the explanation/hint. This will get the letters in the correct order.
