Coming soon...a Bored Geocaching Mystery

I've created several geocaching puzzles based on various Tangredi and LS games from the Bored (with permission, of course), and they have been very well received in the geocaching world. A couple of months ago, I decided to create a geocaching puzzle based on a popular promo series featuring the Bored's two most famous cops.

This one turned out to be a lot more difficult than expected. Hundreds have tried, but only three cachers have solved it. The folks on this Bored are pretty good at puzzles, so I thought I'd cross post it here (the puzzle is available on geocaching.com for premium members only).

But there's a twist: the post will be locked and there can be no sharing of information. The only way to claim victory is to email me the correct results (in this case, a set of lat/long coordinates). All winners will be put into a drawing for a prize, most likely a signed copy of one of my books. But mostly, it's just for fun.

I'll post the puzzle later in the week and keep it around for as long as needed. I changed the character names to BB names, but otherwise left it intact. Look for the puzzle by name:

Esto Spills His Guts


Good luck and have fun.

Go north till you smell it.
Go west till you step in it.

Did I win?
