Like many others, this cache has many reasons for its creation
and a story behind its theme.
First off, it celebrates our 1000th find. It’s been
a long time coming, but stubborn persistence brought us to this
noteworthy milestone;
it celebrates our recent move to Colorado and is our initial
cache here in the Springs;
its name celebrates our history and ties to Fort Bragg, North
Carolina, home of the Airborne. Thanks to all who serve and have
served as paratroopers. Your legacy is etched on the history of our
country and the world;
and finally, the story behind the cache. Moving across country,
I started to feel the onset of a cold. Not wanting to suffer the
debilitating symptoms of being sick during my move, I stopped to
pick up one of the many products designed to lessen the effects of
the common cold. Looking over the choices available, my eyes locked
on the container that you'll find at these coords.
Hmmmmm….You’ve seen these 100 times, right? An
easy park and grab, right? Enjoy!
There are some tenets of hunting for micros that every cacher
should know:
These are not all inclusive and
are in no particular order
-The easiest micro is the one you’re rehiding and some of
those can be a bear…
-Never ignore the obvious, but don’t be deceived by it
either;
-Remember, the person that set the difficulty rating,
knows where the cache is;
-The greatest hint often lies in the cache’s
name…
Except in this
case
FTF honors go to
