Geocache Description:

Cache is located approx .11 mi. off of an established trail. You will be going off trail.

Tom came upon the juvenile pariah of the village, Huckleberry Finn, son of the town drunkard. Huckleberry was cordially hated and dreaded by all the mothers of the town, because he was idle and lawless and vulgar and bad -- and because all their children admired him so, and delighted in his forbidden society, and wished they dared to be like him. Tom was like the rest of the respectable boys, in that he envied Huckleberry his gaudy outcast condition, and was under strict orders not to play with him. So he played with him every time he got a chance. Huckleberry was always dressed in the cast-off clothes of full-grown men, and they were in perennial bloom and fluttering with rags. His hat was a vast ruin with a wide crescent lopped out of its brim; his coat, when he wore one, hung nearly to his heels and had the rearward buttons far down the back; but one suspender supported his trousers; the seat of the trousers bagged low and contained nothing, the fringed legs dragged in the dirt when not rolled up.

You've probably heered how Huck and I found the robber's money in the cave. It made us rich. So rich that we didn't need a lot of our truck and stuff. We decided to hide that stuff in the woods for others to enjoy as to their liking. Our stash is hidden in Huckleberry Finn: GCN0TQ. While this here cache is a cache all by its lonesome, you need to visit at least one other cache in order to find our final hidin' spot.

In this cache are the North coordinates. To find the West coordinates of Huckleberry Finn, you need to visit Captain Rebelroo 3: GCN0AQ; and that tain't as easy as it sounds.

Congratulations to the First to Find!
