Geocache Description:

This is a puzzle.  You must solve the puzzle below to find the geocache.  The actual geocache IS NOT at the posted coordinates.


So Janis, this is a puzzle.  And to solve the puzzle you must do the following:

1) Locate the song lyrics
2) Identify the song
3) Find the length of the song
4) replace the last two digits of the N and W coordinates with the minutes of the song length

The cache is located at:  N36 32.3xx   W114 58.5xx

The "xx" is the same for both parts of the coordinates.
The "xx" is the minutes from the song length.

So for example, (example only!) if the song was 4:23, then the "xx" would equal "23".
That's it!!!!   Nothing sneaky, just a couple of internet searches.  I had cell service at the cache so you could even do this one in the field, although I recommend that you do it before you head out... you know, just in case.





Congratulations to Kris32 for FTF and for logging it promptly!



Edit, 1 Nov 2017:     Wahoo! Thanks to toolrep1, I now know why there are so many wrong attempts! It seems Wikipedia has the length listed differently in two different places. So, I've updated wikipedia. :) and oh, by the way, if you get XX=56 on the album page, go to the song page and use the length from there.
