Geocache Description:

Cache is not at these coordinates; solve the puzzle to reveal the actual location. Container is a small tupperware. Having trouble solving? Zapphod had a clue for you, but he fell into the creek too many times, so I have posted his clue in the hints section.



Zapphod pushes the button on the Infinite Improbability Drive.

"No!" yells Ford, "the value of Improbability is 2^279460347:1 against."

"Precisely! We're headed to Milliways before happy hour ends, and this is the only way to get there."

Zip!

Marvin greets the travellers. "I've been waiting 576,000,003,579 years for you, I counted," mopes the pitiful robot. "But you're out of luck, the bar is closed."

"Egad!" Zapphod screams. "Could have Evildrome Boozarama discontinued Gargle Blasters, or Gagrakakan gin, and Eadraxian Complaints ended alcoholism?"

"Indeed. I could have predicted that, you know," Marvin says, "I have a brain the size of a planet."

"I just want to go home," Ford says as he climbs back aboard the Heart of Gold. "Or maybe the North West ripple of the Galaxy, I've heard it's quite nice."

Don't forget your towel!
