Geocache Description:

The Seventh (and last for now) in a series of Puzzle Caches celebrating Great Canadian Musicians

THE CACHE IS NOT AT THE POSTED COORDINATES

Ron Sexsmith is unquestionably one of the greatest songwriters that Canada has produced, though huge commercial success has eluded him. In an interview in 2006 Ron said, “It seems to frustrate people around me more than it does me,” Sexsmith says modestly. “People don’t understand why I’m not playing arenas. I’ve never had any ambition to play any place bigger than Massey Hall.”

Chris Martin of Coldplay is impressed, at least, and Ron has opened for Coldplay on their tours. Martin also collaborated on the song "Gold in Them Hills" which didn't hurt Ron's mainstream appeal.

But really, with a name like "Ron" how could he be anything but a great guy?


Watch the video found in the link below, and answer the question to find the coordinates of the cache.



Ron Sexsmith - Gold in Them Hills

1) Let the time that is shown in the digital clock radio be AB:CD
2) What is the room number in the motel? Let E=first digit. Let F=last digit upside down.

The cache is at N44 DF.AFC W075 EB.EEF


WARNING:The cache is easily accessible during the winter. During other times of the year, this will be an unpleasant wet and muddy walk, mostly thanks to the 4-wheeler damage.
Feel free to try, but the terrain will go up accordingly.



Good luck as you head "Up The Road"!
