Geocache Description:

A cache series along Highway 71, southwest of Austin

This series consists of 71 caches along Highway 71, plus a bonus puzzle cache. In order to solve the puzzle, you will need some information from each cache. In most of the caches, the puzzle information is visible on the bottom of the container lid, and it is also present on the log sheet. On some containers, the information is only on the log sheets.

This series is mostly relatively straightforward, and will pose only a few challenges to experienced cachers. If you feel that any of the cache ratings are too high (or too low), please feel free to say so. D/T ratings are so subjective that I'm always open to opinions from others.

Most containers are 35mm film cans. There are a handful of bison tubes and a small number of non-standard containers.

If the log sheets get close to being full, please let me know so I can replace them with new logs. The logs contain pieces to the puzzle cache, and are specific to each cache in the series, so replacements will be best if they come from me. Also, please log DNFs and shoot me a note if you find a cache at coordinates that differ much from the posted coords. This will help me diagnose problems with the caches & take corrective action.

A word about safety: Highway 71 is a busy road. In all cases, the cache is located near a reasonable place to park. Many (most?) are driveways or other pavement. Some are large swaths of grass. DO NOT SIMPLY PULL ONTO THE SHOULDER CLOSE TO THE HIGHWAY. If you haven't figured out where to park, please spend a moment looking for the parking spot before you get out of your car -- there IS a safe place for you to park for each cache!

For the other caches in the series, see this bookmark.

Good luck, and happy caching!

Congrats to booger58&Mrs for the FTF!
