Geocache Description:

See #1 for put-in coord options. I'm sure there's more, too, though.  Bring your yak but if you try to step out, beware the water depth: I lucked out and caught myself before falling in. I never felt ground.

I've wanted to do a bunch in Ore Creek since I thought about yakking last year. I finally got some "float" time and took advantage of it to place a few caches. There'll be more, too. :) (Is there a programatic thing to check your placed cache average stats? This series is kicking mine up a notch, I'd say...)

Requires a yak. I tried to make this one a 7* terrain, but almost went in when I discovered that all those grasses are darn near floating. "ground" is somewhere significantly deeper than I though; I never touched it and still very nearly went in. My legs are pretty long, so I'd guess I was reaching at least 3 feet under water, maybe 4, and still had nothing. I clearly gave up on the whole "place this regular sized one in the trees over there" I was planning.  I'll have to come back with tradables and some better attachment rope as well; 5# test fishing line is only good for so much and a lack of tradables? Yah. Weak.  Since the series is GOING to grow, I'll be sure to be back sooner to fill it up, though.

Have fun! Yak it!!
