Geocache Description:

To all of you undaunted souls unafraid to dedicate a miniscule portion of your precious free time to a lofty cause: this is the cache for you.

Month in and month out, year after year we strive to clean up our adopted wash. On occasion we discover that the local human fauna have conspired together with the very elements of nature to attempt to undo our noble efforts, and yet we persevere without even the tiniest whisper of complaint. On this day, January 30th at 8AM, the lesser of our brethren will remain in their beds, weeping silently beneath their threadbare covers and cursing their lack of masculine pride for they know they are not worthy to participate in our great enterprise. Only those stalwart few, those dedicated individuals, those chosen representatives of humankind will be standing side by side with us, bravely setting ourselves against the dark forces who would dare show such disdain as to litter where we tread.

This may be the first Alamo Wash CITO of 2010, but it most assuredly won't be the last. The petty geocacher may refuse to assist us, choosing instead to board himself up in his drafty hovel, shivering in cold, hunger and fear, but our radiant company will shine like a beacon to the rest of the country, showing the guiding ray of hope where there was naught but the deep darkness of despair, and the sparkling light of solace where there was nothing but the muddled misgivings of misery. Let it not be said that we Southern Arizona Geocachers cannot be bothered to remove a tattered plastic bag from the ubiquitous thorns or raise a battered shopping cart out of the cloying sand. Let it instead be shouted from the rooftops, the treetops, the mountaintops; let it be sung in sonorous union from ocean to ocean echoing all across our venerated land, “We stand united, and we will take out the trash”.
