Cloud Cache Series - Cumulus Pileus Traditional Cache
Team_Schnauzer: Went today to replace the log sheet on this one but decided that it needs to be archived based on everything happening around GZ. There is construction and the are has been staked off which usually signifies that someone purchased the property and/or are planning on putting a building up. All of this is taking place very close to GZ and if this is indeed private property now then the cache needs to be archived anyway. It had a good run!

Quick P & G located just off of I-35 at Exit 123 (Roland/McCallsburg). BYOP. You shouldn't have too much of a problem with muggles. May require wading through snow in the winter time but otherwise winter friendly.
This is part of the Cloud Cache Series.
A pileus, also called scarf cloud or cap cloud, is a small, horizontal cloud that can appear above a cumulus or cumulonimbus cloud, giving the parent cloud a characteristic "hoodlike" appearance. Pilei tend to change shape rapidly.They are formed by strong updrafts acting upon moist air at lower altitudes, causing the air to cool to its dew point. As such, they are usually indicators of severe weather, and a pileus found atop a cumulus cloud often foreshadows transformation into a cumulonimbus cloud, as it indicates a strong updraft within the cloud
Thanks for caching in Story County!
