Cache placed in a wooded and boggy area behind a new church.
---BEGINNING TRASNMISSION---
This is Alpha. I have placed my first cache "CACHE ALPHA" in a
small woods behind a Church in the town of North East,
Pennsylvania. The area is pretty small, a 1/10 mile long strip
following a creek to the lake. However the area has moderate
vegitation and boggy areas. Waders should not be required, but they
or shoes you can afford to get wet may be useful. There is a trail
leading to a highway, but that is going in the wrong direction! (A
nice walk, however.)
The cache is contained inside a normal ammunition box with the
letters "GEO" stenciled on the outside. If you see the letters, you
got the cache. There are a few CDs, including a few that are a
special mix I made just for my fellow GeoCachers. (Please take ONE
of the CDs, please! I will make more over time!) There is ALSO a
Base-10/100 PCMCIA Ethernet card up for grabs, and a few more
things! There isn't much room in the box. A small nonfiction
math/science paperback would be a great gift to leave for me.
;-)
The cache is not submerged in a swampy area- it is on dry
ground. If you need hits, go to the hits/spoiler area. GOOD
LUCK!

Another older cache found! Out celebrating my birthweek with another afternoon cache run. I decided to not just have a birthday this year and today makes four afternoons in a row. This is the seventh oldest cache that I've found. Wasn't quite sure of the best approach for this one so I pretty much just went down over the bank into the woods. It's pretty swampy here and I bet it's much worse in the Spring. After looking around a bit, I saw the container a bit from my GZ, completely exposed. After signing the log I rehid it with a bit of cover although there wasn't much around. Thanks for the cache.

Took a nice little hike in the woods to get to this cache. No CD's in it though :-( It was a beautiful day and a nice cache! TFTC!
