God's Own Cow Country Traditional Cache

James Bridger: MISCELLANEOUS RANT:

I boast that I own nearly a thousand geocache hides. Come to find out, it's been the other way around this whole time.

Someone painted April Fool in big black letters on a Dead End sign.

Would you rather get one shot in the head or five in the chest and bleed to death?

Held his heart in his hands, and ate of it.

You pay as you go. Sometimes all you have.

I'm going outside now. I may be gone for some time.

I am shutting down the machine. A container will remain at the following location for a while yet, until I retrieve it, so you may find it normally. If you wish, you may take the container. If you do so, please indicate such in your log. Likewise, as I recover the container, I will post that I have removed the container.

Thank you to all who "Veni. Vidi. Vici."

JB

Geocache Description:

This cache is located at the eastern edge of Cherry County, Nebraska. If God kept a herd of beeves, this is where he would range them. There is room to park just a short walk away or you may pull from the shoulder enough to access this cache, which is hidden along the Cowboy Trail.

Nebraska has the top three beef cow counties in the U.S., including the nation’s No. 1 cow county – Cherry County, with nearly 165,000 cows. Holt County is No. 2 (101,000) and Custer County is No. 3 (93,000).

January 2006 figures illustrate that Nebraska continues to have far more cattle than people. Cattle outnumber Nebraskans nearly 4 to 1. Cows number 1.93 million, versus Nebraska residents who number just 1.7 million. The cows and the 4.7 million head that are annually fed in Nebraska total nearly 6.64 million cattle.

Nebraska, in 2007, had live animal and meat exports totaling $521 million. Cash receipts from cattle and calves, $6.2 billion. Commercial cattle slaughter with 7.66 million head. This represents 22% of U.S. commercial cattle slaughter. Number of cattle on feed with 2.6 million head. This represents 18% of the nations beef supply. (Information for this listing was gleaned from www.nebeef.org.)

Highway traffic can be frequent, so use good highway etiquette and watch for muggles. Respect the area, CITO if needed, and rehide as you find it for the next cacher. Thank you and good luck.
