Geocache Description:

This is one of the six legs to the South Sound Boondoggle Series. At each of the six legs, you not only find another cache for your repertoire but find one of the six needed clues to the final cache which is an Ammo Box with scads of dubious gems.

You should park and begin your trek near N 47o 03.394 W 122o 50.422

Don’t attempt this cache with the web posted coordinates. The above coords pointed to the nearest brown squirrel that happened to appear just after I hid the cache.  To obtain the actual coordinates for the cache, you need to answer the really really fun question shown below.

One of FireFighterJ's top three movies of all-time is "The Shawshank Redemption".  Because of this, you are forced to endure a question based on this movie.  The question is, "What was the name of the character (main character) played by the lead actor Tim Robbins?

our answer to the really really fun question is:

North Coord.

West Coord.

George Castanza N 47o 02.923 W 122o 50.512
Andrew Dufresne N 47o 03.399 W 122o 50.390
Randall Lewis-Upton N 47o 03.622 W 122o 50.723
Matthew Garza  N 47o 03.112 W 122o 49.976

OK ... on the same row and to the right of your answer to the really really fun question above are the coordinates for this "leg".  So ... get up off your chair and go find it!!

Other than being able to trade really really cool junk in this cache, what you are wanting to obtain from this cache is a letter (just one monstrously important Big Bold Letter) which you will need (along with the other five letters obtained from the other five cache "legs") in order to be able to find the final cache (and, hopefully, the $20 bill!)

On the webpage for the "South Sound Boondoggle Series - Final II" will be the "formula" for converting the six letters that you found in the six cache "legs" to the coordinates for the final cache.
