Geocache Description:

Located just after you start down the dirt road as you head towards the Ranch and Paddy's Pond. Should be able to park near the cache and walk up a little incline.

The cache container is a snap lid clear plastic container that holds a logbook and pencil and enough room for several travel bugs and other travelling items.

The container should be easily found but the difficulty is increased because the "hotel" is protected. I have a "night" watchman keeping an eye on the hotel for me. Find him and get the key!!

UPDATE:
So the night watchmen is gone...and must have been disgruntled as the key was cracked in half (actually had rusted apart).

The hotel is now recruiting for a new watchmen but in the meantime the front door in now unlocked and the hotel is open for business. I'm going to have to try to get another key made so please leave the hotel unlocked after you visit.

UPDATE:

So with the watchmen gone and the key broken I was leaving the hotel open but this kindness of visitors kept locking it up. It finally got closed for good. Tenders went out for it's replacement and finally the military one. They supplied me with a larger hotel that is a larger version of another along this road.

The TB hotel is open for business again. Only trackables please.

UPDATE:

I wonder if the watchman was disgruntled. The hotel is no more. I'll have to see if the military will rebuild. Stay tuned....
