Geocache Description:

Don’t attempt this cache with the above listed coordinates. The above coordinates are for a nearby Train Trestle (thought I was going to say "Cross Street" or "Intersection", didn't ya ?)  To obtain the actual coordinates for the cache, you need to solve the fun movie quiz shown below.


This is a regular sized cache (ammo box) located along the Yelm to Tenino walking/riding trail.  Me suggests dat you should begin and park in the teenie weenie little park in Rainier at the following coordinates:

N

46o 53.488

W

122o 41.140

Oh ... and the contents of the original cache are (were?) as follows:

1.    Book, "Angela's Ashes"
2.    Teddy Bear
3.    Hot wheels toy
4.    Motorcycle and Rider toy
5.    Log book
6.    Pen

The coordinates for the actual cache (ammo box) are to obtained by answering the following six (6) questions to the MOVIE TRIVIA quiz shown below in order to gain the needed six (6) coordinate values:
