Here's a spot to stop and watch the train cross the Hood River. For extra credit email us with an answer to how many times the Mt Hood railroad crosses the Hood River from the Mouth of the River to Parkdale. Well send you a picture of us smiling for you.
***Please stay away from the bluffs.*** Cache is near, but not down the nearby cliffs. As always use your best judgement. Would hate for the last one you signed to be the last one you signed. Team ALE assumes no responsibility for your teams lack of good judgement. If you are searching anywhere near the water, you are definately not looking in the right place, and you might want to let your GPS settle before making the attempt.
The Upper Hood River Valley. Filled with orchards, spectacular views, and friendly faces at every turn. This series of caches around the valley was designed to stimulate your geo-senses by providing you an opportunity to experience different hides, containers and challenges. Parking is very close to every single hide. We recommend bringing some tools, at the very least a good pen, a light and some tweezers for prying some log sheets out of the containers. Take some time to stop at the fruit stands, coffee bars and lunch spots, to really experience what the 97031 has to offer.
Go get 'em.
Happy Cachin'

Pretty good SWAG in this one. Glass Bear necklace, blown by yours truly a few years ago when I still worked, for FTF.
What are you waiting for? Go get it.
Are you ready to fill your Fizzy chart? Here's is a linked series that will help you do so. Brought to you by your friends Team ESP, and Team ALE, we are giving you an opportunity to cache two states and every possible Difficulty/Terrain combo while enjoying the beautiful countryside that the East end of the Columbia River Gorge provides.
Park and Grabs, we got 'em. Climbing and Paddling, got 'em. Challenging hides, steep scrambles, got 'em. A multitude of different containers, with differing styles of Camoflage, got 'em. In fact, if we are not able to provide one of the best well rounded experiences that you have ever had, then we have not done our job.
So, what are you waiting for?
Come FILL YOUR FIZZY!
