GeoShepherd Tracks Series: Well Water You Know... Traditional Cache
TeamZebra: Cache may still be there. But since it's no longer where i left it and the area keeps getting flooded I'm going to archive this one. Maybe someone else will have better luck.

Located in a small park in the Springbrook business
park.
You'll start on a paved walking trail. There are two ways to get
to
the area you will leave that trail, one is the parking area
close
to The Storyteller Cache. The other is the parking area where
Alcoa
City cache is located. It's possible to make a loop and get
all
three caches. Enjoy!
This is a revisit or rehide of sorts of GeoShepherd Tracks
#1 - Water You Lookin' At? The area in which that cache was hidden
was destroyed by high water and the cache disappeared. Rather than
try to replace it and lose it again I decided to switch it up. It's
now a larger container, a different type of hide and located in a
different spot along the same trail. Due to the changes I decided
to archive the original and list this as a new hide. (I've also
dropped the numbers from the "Tracks" series and so the name of
this one fits better now).
Welcome to the revisit of the GeoShepherd's first cache.
Sasha, the GeoShepherd, has been my constant friend and companion
for almost three years now. During that time, we've been going on
lots of exploratory walks, but frequently forgot to bring my
caching stuff along. During a cache run one day when I noticed alot
of places where I had to leave her in the car, I decided to try to
add some more fur-friendly caches to the area and introduce people
to some of mine and Sasha's favorite places to walk and play. And
so the Geo-Shepherd Tracks idea was born.
While exploring one of her favorite walking trails we noticed a
side trail and decided to see where it went. It wandered quite a
way back into a wooded area with a slow moving creek along one
side. With so much commercial real estate surrounding us, it was
neat to find such a secluded spot. We came back and hid a cache
there.
Water is the theme of this one. You'll see water in several
different forms along the trek to this cache.
Falling Water
Orange Water! What caused THAT?
And slowly flowing water... Which makes for a peaceful
setting to find a geocache.
The container you seek is a 2 cup plastic twist top container
covered in camo.
There is a pen inside and some small trade items.
I had a cache very close to this area but it was a bit to close to
the water and disappeared (floated away most likely) so this one
has been placed farther away from the water which means the terrain
level has jumped a bit. Also note this area WILL be muddy if it has
rained recently and there are several holes in the ground along the
trail to the cache so watch your step and enjoy this very woodsy
area in the middle of so much business and industry!
FTF goes to
