We
had tried to find this Geocache once before and
failed.
Ted and Tom accompanied me on this DNF. We parked at the recommended
coordinates and hiked in the trail to the first spot the GPSr indicated.
After a minute of looking around the GPSr indicated a different spot 30
feet away. It went like this for half an hour without any success. But
because of this we managed to find several concrete slabs, one hollow
foundation, a couple large slabs and some steps.
We found no micro and no ammo can. We could see from the logs that someone else was
there as well so it was just us. We also spent some time fishing
in this hollow tree.
We decided to go back when it's warmer.
Today we went out to try again!
Ted, Tom and I were planning to
visit this one earlier but it was very cold outside so
we decided to wait. Later, it got sunny and fooled us
into thinking it was not cold outside. We parked again
and this time went directly to the first stage with no
trouble. The coordinates are much better, thanks! Quite
a difference from where we were looking last time.
The first
time we came here the cache location was not easy to
find. We found the micro this time right away.
The cache owner had updated the coordinates and this
time they were right on.
This time, we found the final cache in good
condition, actually more obvious for attempts to make it
hard to find!
We left I'm A Ford Truck Man TB (sorry
to the person who requested we mail it to Iraq, just
couldn't swing it), kazoo;
Took the Aren't we all connected TB,
water bottle,
and safety vest.
Signed the log.
