Geocache Description:


You may be familiar with the children’s' book character “Flat Stanley” Lambchop, who is flattened paper-thin by a bulletin board. He soon is sliding under doors and visiting his friends by mail. But this story is about me, Flat Stanley’s lesser-known cousin, Flat Jack Foundit. I came upon a similar fate when I tried to squeeze between two rocks while geocaching. My new shape makes it a challenge for me to cache by myself, but I still love to hide them!

I also love to go hiking with my Geobuddy BakRdz and his family. Most of the time I ride BakRdz's backpack, but this last trip I got to put on my OWN backpack. After awhile, the kids and I decided it was time to play hide and seek. After they found me, I liked my hiding spot so much I decided to stick around to see if other people could find me too. You shouldn't have to bushwhack more than a few feet off the trail. Check out my backpack for a logsheet and please make sure to hide me how you found me for the next hikers.
