Geocache Description:

This is one of the six (6) "legs" to the "South Sound Boondoggle Series". At each of the six "legs" (caches), 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 loaded with "scads" of dubious "gems" but does have the redeeming feature of having within its contents a $20 bill for the FTF!

The cache for this "leg" is an Ammo Box.  You should park and begin your trek near N 47o 02.643 W 122o 49.245

Don’t attempt this cache with the web posted coordinates. The above coordinates pointed to the nearest carpenter ant 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.

Among some others, who sang "Walk Away Renee"?

Your answer to the really really fun question is:

North Coord.

West Coord.

The Lovin Spoonful N 47o 02.455 W 122o 49.619
Buddy Holly N 47o 02.611 W 122o 49.854
Arlo Guthrie N 47o 03.211 W 122o 49.342
Left Banke N 47o 02.792 W 122o 49.176

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.
