MERRY CACHMAS



The Cache is NOT at the listed Coordinates.
Here is a little gift to all the people we have met over the last three years geocaching.


This fun 3 part multi-cache will find you teaming up with a cacher YOU have probably never met… and may never meet! The idea is to work with someone on the other side of the continent in order to find the cache. Sounds to hard you say?? Well, actually it easier than you may think.

At waypoint #1 will find you be looking for something with the coordinates in California!! YES!!! California. Once you find those coordinates, search out a cacher in the general area of the coordinates. E-mail them letting them know what you are doing, give them the coordinates for waypoint #2, and have them retrieve the coordinates for the final cache… here in Virginia. Once you have found the cache, please sign the log with both your name as well as the person who helped you with the find. Be sure to notify the cacher who helped with the find, give them the GC#, and BOTH of you will be entitled to log the find!! In your log, please include the name of the cacher who helped you with the find. After all, you didn’t do it alone. Of course, if you want, you are welcomed to do it alone if you so desire.

Everyone should try and find different cachers to help you out. That way more people will be able to enjoy the fun. After all, anyone can contact the same person over and over again but where’s the fun in that? I’m sure everyone will enjoy caching with someone you have never met.

Don’t be to shocked if someone in California contacts you first. There is a similar cache in California(GC17TXE). So you may be teaming up with that same person or maybe someone else??

We placed a few nice trackables in the cache to get it started.
Please be sure to hide the cache better than when you found it.
Please leave the pen in the cache even though you may be tempted to take it with you!

Happy Caching & Have Fun!!
Mountain Lovers



Congratulations to: the girls and I & martinusen on a well deserved First to Find!!!

I helped out SrchNResQ on this one.We've become fast friends since then. OK, so in reality I haven't emailed him since I found the dog tag with the co-ord's...which is a shame really, since that's sort of the whole point of this cache! Well, since I happen to be sitting here at my computer, and the only other thing I have planned for today is paying off a fix-it ticket...

Got it with an assist from Necros96 out in CA. This was a good one. TFTC.

Though I could have waited a bit for my final search until the weather warmed up - it was a bit uncomfortable in the wind; my fiance enjoyed watching me from the warmth of the car.

This is Cache # 280 for me.

Found this one in partnership with karo92. This weekend I'll make my way to the 3rd stage of its sister cache here in California and sign the log for myself and karo92. Thanks for all your hard work karo92. Thank you, the owners, for this amazing cache.

TFTC Thanks for helping me meet a friend in California! Found with the help of CarlosGuerrera! Big thanks to him for finding the second stage so quickly and for retrieving the coordinates for the "Sister Cache" in California. Made a quick find of this one today after a work meeting in DC. Picked up the Cheesehead Coin and the Hockey TB. Thanks again for the cache, loved the idea!
