Geocache Description:


This is a revival of Each Chord Went Thud that was originally hidden on 3/24/2005. The cache was sadly archived in 2013 because it was not found for three years. It lay in wait for 8 long years until Snarfmon23 decided to try to find the archived cache. To his surprise, not only was the cache there, but it was in perfect condition!  We got permission from the original hider to revive this great puzzle cache as our own. Now there is a downhill mountainbike trail near the cache, so bikes may be moving at high speed on the trail. Please yeild to bicyclists. Below is the original description of the cache.
