Geocache Description:


RochesterParks.org has this to say about Griffith Park:

While the trails and open field are certainly well-maintained and enjoyable to visit, there is absolutely nothing else here.  There is no eating area, no play area and no other major attraction to draw people to the park.  Couple those issues with a distinct lack of awareness about this park and I can’t imagine why anyone would actually come here.

Well, you could come here to find a geocache!

There is no cache at the posted coordinates, but it is a good place to park. In order to find the cache, you'll need to know a few things about the Andy Griffith Show.

The cache is located at N 43 05.ABC W 077 29.DEF.

A = The total number of TV Land Awards the show won

B = The number of Emmy award nominations the show had in 1967

C = The show's rank during it's sixth season

D = The episode when Otis, the town drunk, first appeared in season one

E = The show's rank in its final season

F = The number of Emmy award wins the show had in 1967

Please note there is poison ivy nearby but you shouldn't have to touch it to access the cache. Please let me know of the poison ivy has encroached upon the cache.

There's a sweet $1.00 bill as a First to Find Prize. You can use it for a shave and a haircut at Floyd's Barber Shop. Don't flinch at Floyd's razor like Barney or the boys will razz you too! 

NO NIGHT CACHING PLEASE!

Congratulations to 55PlusShadesOfGray for the first to find!
