Geocache Description:

This cache is hidden for the 8th Annual Vancouver Island Hide-&-Go (or HAG).



Listen up, soldiers!

You've been assigned to a team that will be attacking the hideout of the enemy's leader, the evil Baron Gustav von Muggle. That operation has been assigned the code name GLOBAL FLANNEL. Before that operation can get the green light, we need to do some recon to learn more about the hideout. Our operatives have identified 3 locations that will provide the intelligence necessary to carry out the operation. You'll need to complete 3 separate missions to acquire all the required intelligence, but the order in which you complete the missions doesn't matter.

MISSION BRIEFING
This mission will take you to one of the locations identified by our operatives and has been assigned the code name DREADFUL WATERBIRD. It's a short recon mission that will take you into a forest on the south side of an unnamed hill. It won't take you long to get to the objective from the insertion point, and the terrain isn't particularly difficult. Once you reach the objective, don't forget to retrieve the vital intelligence, or OPERATION GLOBAL FLANNEL will have to be called off and you'll be reassigned.

(For anyone wondering where I got the WEIRD code names from, I used this code name generator.)
