Congratulations to Arvintiler on a Great FTF!!

Once upon a time, As we all know there was a girl named Cinderella, and we have all heard her story. Well, part of it anyway. The part we haven’t heard is the one about her favorite place to hide from the wicked Stepmother and Stepsisters. Cinderella would sneak off whenever she could and meet up with all of her tiny animal friends in this beautiful little canyon. In English the name of this canyon means “Fresh Water”. The canyon was full of life. There were trees, flowers and woodland creatures everywhere you looked. Cinderella and her friends were very at home in this green paradise until one day the wicked Stepmother and Stepsisters followed her to her hiding spot. The Evil Trio watched Cinderella and her little animal friends frolic in the little paradise and became mad and envious of all the beauty and happiness there. The Evil Trio prowled around and found a make-believe princess carriage that Cinderella and her friends were secretly building from branches and scraps they picked up in the paradise. The Evil Trio could stand no more, they decided to start a fire and burn everything. The fire roared through the canyon and burnt everything in sight. Cinderella and her friends barely made it out alive !. The paradise was reduced to ash in minutes. The only thing left is a skeleton of the princess carriage and Cinderella’s small treasure box that she hid before her escape from the flames. Cinderella’s paradise, even though charred and black still today, holds a special beauty. The flowers and trees are starting to burst their green shoots through the blackened floor of the canyon. The paradise will be beautiful again very soon, which is more than we can ever say for the Wicked Stepmother and sisters.

The moral of this story is: True Beauty , whether on the inside or outside will always be there, and the harder evil people try to destroy it will only make it stronger and more beautiful. A real treasure awaits the FTF.Please .Please, Please put the cache back as you found it. Thank You !! Have fun... PS. just take the lid off, don't try to get the whole cache out.

Last find of the day. I really wish there was a trail to and from the cache. I was bushwacking the whole way.

Great camo! We really liked this one. But we had to do some major bush whacking to get to it. Took TB. TFTC

It was really getting dark fast which made finding this blended in camo hide a bit more work. Left a TB. Found after a day of orienteering.

Found this one this morning with the S0ccerstud. The top was ajar, and it was loaded with dirt.
We cleaned it out, and tried to reset it.
The Travel Slug GeoCoin is gone. )-;
I concur with S0ccerstud, we could have chosen an easier route to get to it.
