Geocache Description:

THE CACHE IS NOT AT THESE CO-ORDS!!!!

What UTTER nonsense. This poet was renowned for complete and UTTER nonsense. Some say he was very much under the influence. The poem will provide all the information needed for co-ordinates of the (very) general area to park.


Fifteen oceans deepest blue
    orcas dive, their eyes round
Ultimate circles, five times the hex.


Rivers froth, silt and sound
    slowly meander, like figures of
Eight they gently sigh


Valleys deep, serene forest
   elven dreams, we cannot scale
Nor comprehend their eternal test


Neither logarithmic time, of nine fold nine
   is it an Ogham or
Neanderthal line?


Evermore, evermore
   one to one
Nevermore, nevermore.

Eighteen slots
   feathered by fives
Intuit time divided by a dozen IXs.


Valleys deep, serene forest
    elven dreams, we cannot scale
Open hearts, powered by cold Avagadro.


Nest of snakes
   envelops Medusa, prime number
Seventy one and ten betwixt the late Solstice.


Intelligence divine, the sun xeniths in ancient
   xototl time.
One to one.


Nevermore, evermore!
   entertain these witty acrostic hiders, will ye?



Co-ords using numbers from poem:

Feel free to confirm these co-ords with me, via gc.com email. Once done, park here.

Take these co-ordinates, and to the decimal minutes perform the following...

N +0.015 minutes e.g N36 04.500 becomes N36 04.515

W -0.181 minutes
