Geocache Description:


A quality cache hidden off of the highway,
a short way up a dirt road.

I'm surprised that there aren't more caches along this highway, there are so many stash spots.

We were able to drive within a couple hundred feet from the cache location driving our Celica. But, I wouldn't attempt it if it's been raining.

When you come to the range gate, close it after you pass through if it's closed and leave it open if it is open.

Don't forget that you're in the desert. I always look under bushes and between rocks to make sure that there are no snakes with those scary sounding rattles on their tails before I reach in.

Please, try to keep this a cache that contains quality items, not a catch-all for broken action figures.
My rule of thumb is, I won't put something into a cache that I wouldn't want to take out.

I've filled the cache with the following Nevada (primarily Reno) related items:

Silver Legacy fanny pack, new
IGT (biggest slot machine maker in the world) brass die clock
Virginia City Cemetery book mark
2002 Street Vibrations "Official Entry" packet
Nevada hat pin
Reno key ring
Great Reno Balloon Race lapel pin
