Geocache Description:


This cache is a replacement for The Boulders (or The Tale of the Forgotten GPS) which was archived a year ago.

No, I didn't forget my GPS, but I do have a tale to tell.

I placed the final for First Reverse in the Berkshires up here. It was kicked back for being too close to a hidden waypoint of another cache. I was sure I knew which cache, El Diablo IX 😈. The only non-traditional in the area I hadn't found. I knew Capt. Bob had hidden caches at The Boulders in the past and evil minds think alike. If I was putting a final here he may have too.

Knowing Capt. Bob's hiding style and knowing it was a regular I thought I could find it. I was wrong. Not long after TheWanderer069 solved El Diablo IX 😈 and invited me to go with him for the hike.

With a little help from a friend I was now sure it was Turf War: The King is Dead. Cdparker1 must have moved the final after I found it on 8/7/2017. After checking stage 1 of Turf War: The King is Dead and contacting cdparker1 I knew I was wrong again.

Eventually I did figure it out and solve the problem so I could place this cache here.

Congrats to bdubs213 and chicken34 on the FTF!
