At the Foot of the Guardian Multi-cache
forariman55: Hi everyone,
I'm archiving this cache. I moved out of the area several years ago and it hasn't been in workable shape in a very long time. I apologize for the inconvenience.

This cache will take you from a small park to the motherlode of knowledge!
The first stage of this cache is hidden inside a small film canister.
Upon finding the second stage, ask the ADULT Reference Librarian about the number contained inside or find it yourself. Stage two is hidden inside the stacks of the reference section, the small stacks in the middle. This cache only has room for small trade items, as it is a hollowed out book.
Thanks to Ms. Johnas, the Director of Adult Services at HPPL for allowing this cache to be placed. Congrats to katguy, Genius Loci and jwheels1 on a cooperative and surely competitive FTF!
NOTE: you must find stage one to reveal the location, coordinates and most importantly, Dewey Decimal Number. Make sure you put the last stage EXACTLY where you found it.
ALSO NOTE: Please post a note if the coordinates are unreadable.
Edit: Sorry about the very long downtime on this cache. With a new first stage, hopefully this one will be found soon!
Second Edit: for previous searchers, the first stage is no longer in a sprinkler head, and its location has been changed slightly.
