The TL event for this year is an action packed adventure weekend
at the Pleasant Lake Camping area on the shores of Pleasant Lake in
Alexander.
This will give you an oppourtunity to safely log the out of the
way caches with a group. We will have a series of off road caches
and possible water caches planned out for the weekend.
We will have our Travel Bug/Geocaching chat along with our Tread
Lightly presentation at noon on Saturday the 13th and then heading
off from there in search of treasures and adventure!
This event will give you the opportunity to play in the mud and
in the water! So bring your 4x4 and your kayak, come early and stay
