I think this must be one of the oldest caches I've yet found. In a nice spot, yet from reading the logs, at least one non-geocacher came upon it by accident during these last 9.5 years (and was kind enough to write a note but not run off with the whole thing...).

Took a roundabout loop that was a welcome workout, thank you! TNLNSL.

Found with new cacher G2. I would rate this a little more than 1 1/2 stars difficulty because of the tree cover-- I'd call it at least a 2 1/2. If we hadn't paid attention to the elevation I think we would have spent a long time digging around in the ravine. In fact, the first time I looked for this cache several years back that's exactly what happened. So, it was lovely to make the find. I swapped the gorgeous geocoin I found there for a postcard from Kamchatka, Russia.
