Geocache Description:

The FTF goes to mtnbikerik and Jerry , congrats!

I am hoping this are is a little troublesome for GPS and or the satellites were still sleeping when we planted them. Please give me your results and I will update the coords as needed. Might be time to replace our unit? Thanks team for identifying the flower!



Double Sunset2 Crop

Spent two nights here on our much needed power vacation. Absolutely beautiful! Had the place to ourselves the first night and quite neighbors at the other end of the cove the next night. We saw a sunset phenomenon where it looked like there were two suns setting, very cool! As usual the picture just does not do it justice. The one on the left had a rainbow effect and they looked much brighter. Looks like they have just been through the campground and have it all slicked out real nice with split firewood around but it is still green. We brought some seasoned almond wood and were able to use some of the green wood as a filler once the fire got hot enough. Even has a nice clean outhouse on site. The middle of the McCloud arm looked like it needed some caches between the others so we planted away

Difficulty rating is high as we hid this one very well, or tried to, because of the upcoming Memorial day weekend hoping that no party muggles will find it! Also, our GPS was having difficulty trying to work out here, not sure if it was our unit, which has been acting up for some time, or the tree canopy. I would shoot a point then try to drive to it and it would be 50 to 80’ off –UGH- Anyway, Please re-hide as well or even better than when found to keep it muggle safe. A keen cachers eye should be able to recognize the un-ordinary.

The terrain rating is based on you need to have a boat to get there and in anticipation of the lake dropping for the summer. Once you are at the site and if the lake is at the treeline as it is now, the terrain is probably a 1.5 – 2.0. Please give me feedback on this.

We also added a picture of some more wildflowers and need help identifying it.

The cache follows our campground theme and has games, brain teaser puzzle, tools, Nerf Frisbee, cool swaggish toys, and some great camp reading material!
Our Ole Buddy Abe is there waiting to greet the FTF.

Enjoy!
Team Rooks
