Eighth in the Ring Quest series
This is the eighth cache of Ring Quest, a twenty-cache series inspired by J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings.
Click here to watch a video about this series.
For more information about this series, see the description for the first cache:
Ring Quest I: The Nine: Black Riders.
Ring Quest VIII: The Nine: Khamûl
Khamûl was one of the nine Ringwraiths, second only to the Witch-king himself. He was called Sauron's lieutenant, "Shadow of the East," "the Second Chief," and "the Black Easterling." He and the Witch-king are the only two of the Nine specifically mentioned by Tolkien, and his is the only name given, in the Unfinished Tales.
You are looking for a small container. As with all of the first nine caches, the log contains coordinates to a nearby marker with information you’ll need to find the final cache of the One Ring.
Final Cache Coordinate Information – J.R.R. Tolkien
J.R.R. Tolkien wrote numerous books chronicling Middle-earth and the history of the rings, including the Lord of The Rings trilogy, The Hobbit, and The Silmarillion. At the coordinates printed on the log sheet of this cache you will find Tolkien’s name carved onto the page of a book. Below, you will see the date, December QR, 1982. Record the values of Q and R to use in finding the One Ring.
