Remember the Burma Shave signs along the highways in years past?
Burma Shave was a brushless shaving cream that was made popular in early 20th century America by a unique advertising campaign that consisted of a series of signs evenly spaced along the America's highways providing an interesting diversion for travelers. They were clever, fun and consequently were quite popular.

This is the eighth of a series of Burma Caches I have placed. However, this one is a little different. Each of the listed coordinates contains a separate, but related, phrase.

In order to verify your visit, you need to supply the following information:
  1. What are the phrases from each of the coordinates?

Each cache consists of a series of coordinates. At each coordinate you will find two metal washers attached in plain view (usually to a fence or sign post). The washers will have a word or phrase stamped on them.

The coordinates for this cache is are MUCH more spread out than with my other Burma Caches -- they are spread out from one end of the valley to the other. However, all the washers are attached to chain link fencing.

The coordinates for this cache are:

2 N 40° 24.816 W 111° 46.868

We were really looking forward to doing this one today. We actually started at #2, and there is nothing at the coordinates even close to a Burma cache site. From the last log it appears #1 is gone also. We didn't try 3, 4, and 5. Maybe this one needs to be archived. We have had a lot of fun with the other Burma caches.

I searched all over for the first leg and I found nothing. Having found other caches in this series I was looking for the usual and I started looking for other types but found absolutely nothing.

We are also glad to get this one done today. It's taken us a couple of months, but well worth the wait!
