About 3/4 mile total travel and a brief puzzle are required. All but the last few hundred feet are on asphalt paths.
This is a well known landmark; most of you have driven by it. But did you know it contains a bomb shelter AND a direct line to the president? All but the last step of this multi-cache can be done on wheels ranging from a baby stroller to roller blades. I scouted it on foot, but did the research and hide on bike. The last step will require you to leave the path. Take a pencil for working out the puzzle below. The cache contains information sheets on the reason you're here. Even if you don't read them all, at least skim the one with highlights. Park at the coordinates above. If you cannot get that precise parking space, improvise. I have reason to suspect that parking space will be available. Enter the Big Tunnel. Count the light fixtures above. (If you have entered a tunnel with no lights, you have done WAY too much geocaching...) Let A == that number. Proceed to the sign. Read the sign. Let B == the first digit you see on the sign. Let C == the last digit you see on that sign. Let D == A + B. Proceed to 35°5D.8D3N 86°4C.653W. Count the number of pipes you're standing on. Let E == that number. Let F == E + B. The final cache location is 35°FD.DB2N 86°EC.3BFW. |

Open Log: Non-commercial use only This is a great cache. It's too bad it's not getting hunted lately. I had a lot of fun puzzling it out, and left a Corvette patch and a ceramic "Bread" tile. I saw the name of another caching website on it, and thought maybe it was registered there too, but it's not. I humbly think that's too bad. It sure would get more activity if it were. Bad blood maybe? Anyway, I really enjoyed learning about the tower. I pass by it a lot on the way to clients' houses and have wondered about the building. Thanks for placing the cache and info.
