Goats are interesting creatures. Since I decided to start this series of caches, I've learned quite a few things about them.
1. Saanen goats are heavy milk producers, with an average of 1,900 pounds over a 305 day cycle. The world record holder was an Australian Saanen that produced 7,714 pounds over a 365 day period.
2. Saanen goats are pure white; however, some Saanens carry a recessive gene that may produce offspring with colors. This "breed" of Saanens are known as Sables.
This is only one in a series of 17 caches that I’ve placed throughout the valley. All containers are 35mm film canisters. After you snag a couple of these, you should start to see a pattern emerge, but be warned that not all of the caches follow this pattern. The cache is an easy find, but it leads to something bigger…
BE SURE TO TAKE A PEN AND PAPER WITH YOU TO THE CACHE! Fifteen of the seventeen caches that I’ve placed have numbers inside of them that you’ll need to copy down. The first number is the sequence of the coordinates. The second number, which is circled, is part of the coordinates for a mystery cache. Find all 17 caches (or stop at 15 if you get lucky enough to find only the ones with the numbers) and you’ll be on your way to the 18th cache in the series. Here are the GC ID numbers for all of the caches:
