The Livestrong Trip Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Nomex: As there's been no cache to find for months, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

Geocache Description:

Got a yellow Livestrong bracelet showing your support of a cure for cancer? How about a pink breast cancer bracelet, a red heart disease awareness bracelet or - if irony is your cause - a black "nihilism" bracelet? Then you are in luck if you decide to take a nice hiking trip into Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park to commune with a cache full of such trendy bracelets.

What did you think about the whole elastic bracelet trend? Take one from the cache to wear or unload a few of your own into the cache for someone else to wear. Hopefully you will find a message that speaks to you here.

This cache is starting out with 26 elastic bracelets from our home collections, including 2 new Livestrong bracelets and a few bracelets from our Chickasaw Cultural Center in Oklahoma.

The cache is along Powder Mill Trail between our State Park Treasure cache and Kealia's Uncle Greasy cache. It is only 20' north of the trail. More hints below.

Some of us still like those elastic wristbands, and wear them now and then to make a statement about something, even though the trend is kind of over now. Why not? It's fun ;)

Note of trivia: The cache container and some of the SWAG comes from our very first geocache hide Bonny Doon Redwoods, which was archived July 2008. Recycle, reuse !

CONGRATULATIONS to 2cachecowz who was FTF just a few hours after this was first hidden on 7/31/10!
