Geocache Description:

There is NO cache at the above coordinates!!!!!

This is a puzzle cache, but you won’t be looking for a clock. The
puzzle was inspired by John’s love of clocks. He is an antique
clock collector and there are dozens and dozens of clocks around
the house, most not wound or set for local time. I am always asking
“What time is it?” His story is “Well they’re correct 2 times a
day!” Hmmm... I guess that’s true. If you can figure out “what time
it is” you will find the coordinates of the cache. Note: No bush
whacking required at all. I rode my MTB to the cache. FTF movie
tickets and 2nd to find frozen yogurt gift certificate (because
competition is so tough around here).
