Geocache Description:


We placed this cache for the "Old Ghost Town Fairbank CITO", it was released early for the participants, so don't go rushing for a FTF.

A while ago we stumbled across a book about windmills, with the title "Blades in the Sky", and we took a liking to it. I go by this landmark on my way to work and never took the time to stop, but I knew one of these days we would have a cache near it, so here it is. We hope you will enjoy this photo opportunity as much as we do.

The cache is in plain sight, but very well camouflaged, blending in with the natural landscape, it contains a logsheet and a few small trade items, bring your own writing stick. The FTF prize is a Zuni carved fox fetish, symbolizing camouflage, the ability to meld into one's surroundings and be unnoticed.

Be aware of the typical desert hazards, such as scorpions, snakes, thorns etc.

Enjoy!
