Geocache Description:

Located in Bur-Mil Park along the Owl's Roost Mtn Bike trail

The first cache I found was the Bur-Mil cache ... which appears to be long gone from where I originally found it. The park is such a nice place I figured I'd place one in the park ... and that's where it is. It was place on a sunny afternoon about 3:00 pm.

The walk in is very easy and you can get to within 80 to 100 feet of the cache by trail. Keep an eye out when you find the cache since it is a heavily used park ... The cache is below ground level with a covering of leaf litter. Tree cover is heavy and my accuracy was about 25 feet. Only view the photos if you need clues. Photo A shows the cache site and makes the hint below very clear. Photo B is a close up of the buried cache ... and no I didn't leave the Vista laying there when I left!

NOTE: There is a "traveler" in the cache ... please take it to your next cache site and log it's new home by email at "ralloh@hotmail.com". I will post the location of the traveler as I receive news of it's new cache site.

I picked up 6 drink bottles on my way out ... if you see something ... take it out with you ... it seems a lot of "goats" use the park as well.

TRAVELER UPDATE:

The traveler began it's journey Sat. 30-Jun-01 and as of 01-July-01 is now residing in Winston Salem's "Great Big Rock Cache".

The traveler moved from "Great Big Rock Cache" on 16-July-01 to "Hawk 5" Cache ... back to the Hawk Family of caches!Maybe next time it'll move further away ... guess it got homesick!

Well the traveler has moved on ... last seen at a party on Saturday 28-July-01. His exploits can be viewed at the following web site: The Party

He now (29-July-01) resides at the "Senda de Tonto" cache in Arizona (GCED) Have fun little guy!

Look for further his further adventures as a travel bug gets attached by his new owner. Seems he left the "Senda de Tonto" on 16-Oct-01. Look for a link on this page later.

UPDATE: You can now watch the little guy on his own web page ... The Traveler ...
CONTAINER WAS REPLACED 11-NOV-01 NOTE: HINTS AND PHOTO NO LONGER REFLECT REVISED LOCATION. REFERENCES/LINKS TO THE TRAVELER NO LONGER EXIST.
