Geocache Description:

The Cache Is Not At The Posted Coordinates.

Congratulations Haloedversionals for reaching the 1000 Find Milestone. Halo has done much to promote geocaching in his travels. He has also given us many mind exercising and physically challenging Mystery Caches.To help him celebrate I have created a challenging multi-stage geocache. Many thanks go to S and T of the r.e.s.t.seekers for the puzzle.

J.A.G.A. has played games in the past, such as Clue (GC2K8JC), Chess (GC3J3NJ), Bowling (GC397GK), and Baseball (GC2CZD1). We could go directly to jail and trap a mouse but haven't yet. We have swept mines (GC33VD7), but never have we driven around the board of Life, nor played Uno. We have compared Apples to Oranges (GC2P7J2) but not Apples to Apples. Though the region has ticks a plenty we haven’t seen any Cooties. From the looks of the picture maybe Master Tadpole and Malcolm were planning to use these other games.

You must find the coordinates below to begin the search for Halo's Gold.

This cache has three stages each with its own challenges. There are trail-head coordinates listed in the second stage container. These trails will make the trek to the final container longer but easier. These trails are used by quads and dirt bikes. The area is also hunted so please be aware and respectful of other land users.

As with any arduous trek, please plan ahead before attempting this cache. Wear appropriate clothing and footwear for rough terrain, climbing, and the weather, and don't forget to bring some water. This can be a significant hike and challenging adventure; you will be exerting some energy. Do not attempt this if you are not in good physical health. This find may involve traversing steep, rocky and uneven ground. Please be wary of snakes at all times. Always let someone know where you are going and when you plan to return. I highly recommend doing this with a partner or group (for safety, but mostly to share the experience).
