I grew up in the Boise area when there was still farm land between the cities. I remember walking about a mile in order to open the flood gate to let the water come down to irrigate our property. We had to follow the ditch down and close all the neighbor's gates so that the water would reach our field.
When I moved to the Lewiston area, I was amazed at the dry land farming. It was hard to see how crops could grow without the irrigation.
So I wanted to bring you this cache as a reminder of the beautiful winter wheat that is grown around here. Enjoy this crop as you stop by to find the cache.
Please do not cross the fence into the wheat field. It is not necessary to get to the cache. This cache was placed with permission from the land owner. Do not distrub the nearby neighbors as they are not the landowner and do not know the exact location of the cache.
There is a pull-off on both sides of the highway but please be careful and watch for cars.
PLEASE PUT THE CACHE BACK THE SAME WAY YOU FOUND IT!
*****OK folks. Many people don't get my hint. It is really a play on words. Back in the day, they used to portion off small sections of land and do some experimenting with different methods. These areas were called satellite crops. So... this is where my hint comes from..."Think crop" If you still don't get it...Think satellites! Today Satellites (those in the sky vs those on the fence) are used to monitor crops and forest land.
