Geocache Description:

Inside a stump along a creek in the bottom of a ravine.

This is my first cache. It is located near a subdivision that is under construction. The two photos show the exact location and the actual waypoint data off the GPS. The container is a green plastic bowl with a white opaque lid. It is wrapped in black plastic and hanging inside the stump in the photo. There is a piece of wood laid over it to make it a little less visible. Please reposition and hide as found.

There are a lot of little treasures to be found - please take and leave something behind. The log book is there to fill in as well. Hawk 2 will go in place in another month or two - better goodies and a more severe location. Let me know if you find it - by logging your find here. The better your GPS the easier it will be to find as the tree cover comes back - very heavy in the summer time. If you need a bit of help try the -spoiler- for a compass bearing from the center of a Cul de Sac.

WELL IT'S HAPPENED! Progress has spread faster than I had anticipated. Due to the construction of new homes in the area of Hawk 1 ... it is necessary for me to remove the stash. OFFICIALLY as of Monday, 12-March-01 Hawk 1 is defunked. I will however establish Hawk3 in the next couple of weeks ... I will use the contents of Hawk1 as well as additional goodies to establish the cache. Thanks for the folks that made the trip to locate my first stash ... it's been fun watching the changes in the contents and reading the comments.
