This is a series of caches recognizing the top 10 movies of each year from 1950 - 1999. Although most of the roads in this series of caches are suitable for the family sedan, there are some stretches that will require medium to high-clearance vehicles to make it over the rocks without damage to your oil pan. This is a ‘series’ of caches and NOT a ‘power trail’.
NOTE: This is NOT a POWER TRAIL! You won’t be able to complete this in one or two days and it is critical that each cache be put back where it was found and not moved from one location to another in the hopes of speeding up your discoveries. Maintenance of this series of caches is dependent upon each cache remaining in its original location. DO NOT move these caches!
It is REQUESTED that you NOT use ‘stickers’ to log your visit as these stickers are known to gum up the log, making it difficult for others to sign the log and making maintenance necessary sooner than it should. Rubber stamps are fine and there are blank pages in most of the logs for the use of rubber stamps. In the interest of keeping maintenance at a minimum, please use one line of the log to mark your visit and save your dialog for the online log for others to enjoy.
Many of the caches have a MOJO poker chip. Once you have collected one please leave the rest for others to find and claim. These are NOT FTF prizes!
Nearly all caches will have a difficulty rating of 3 because most of the caches are micros or hidden pretty well. And none of them will have hints on where to look. Good luck!
A Bug's Life is a 1998 American CGI animated film produced by Pixar Animation Studios and released by Buena Vista Pictures Distribution in the United States on November 25, 1998. A Bug's Life was the second Disney•Pixar feature film and the third American computer-animated film after Toy Story and Antz. Based on Akira Kurosawa's Seven Samurai, it tells the tale of an oddball individualist inventor ant who hires what he thinks are "warrior bugs" — actually circus performers — to fight off a small band of grasshoppers who have made the ant colony their servants. The film was directed by John Lasseter, and was co-directed by Andrew Stanton. It also inspired a 3D show at Disney's Animal Kingdom and Disney California Adventure Park, It's Tough to Be a Bug!'.
Cast and characters
Dave Foley as Flik, the main protagonist of the film, a nerdy inventive ant who is desperate to make a difference to his colony's way of life, but tends to make things worse in the process. His inventions include a telescope created by wrapping a blade of grass around a dew drop; an automatic harvester; several items of traveler's gear; and the bird-shaped aircraft used to terrify the grasshoppers. He is friends with Dot and the Circus Bugs.
Kevin Spacey as Hopper, the main antagonist of the film, a feared grasshopper who is blind in one eye due to an encounter with a bluejay. He leads a large gang of grasshoppers, who hold a Mafia-like control over the ants. Hopper is cunning, bad-tempered, and tyrannical.
Julia Louis-Dreyfus as Princess Atta, the older princess ant of the royal family and heir to the throne. She is nervous about her new responsibilities and fears what the rest of the colony might think about her.
Hayden Panettiere as Dot, the younger princess ant of the royal family. She idolizes Flik and resents being small.
Denis Leary as Francis, an aggressive ladybug and a clown in P.T. Flea's circus troupe. Francis is frustrated by constantly being mistaken for a female and is shown to be belligerent and aggressive to the point of frightening others.
David Hyde Pierce as Slim, a stick insect and a clown in P.T. Flea's circus troupe. He is clearly unhappy with his position at the circus troupe, as he is constantly cast as a prop by the others - a broom, a flower, a stick, a sword. He is best friends with Heimlich and Francis, and often treats other bugs with respect in contrast to Francis' aggressive nature.
Joe Ranft as Heimlich, a green caterpillar (later a butterfly with small wings at the end) with a Austrian accent and a clown in P.T. Flea's circus troupe. He is gluttonous, frivolous, and contemptuous of anyone he considers less intelligent than himself. Richard Kind as Molt, Hopper's dim-witted brother and self-proclaimed Vice President of the grasshopper gang. He is named 'Molt' for his exoskelton's abnormal tendency to peel off. He is a loudmouth
Phyllis Diller as The Queen of the ant colony. She is an ancient ant, who is due to give up her crown to her eldest daughter Atta. She has a pet aphid called Aphie, whom she adores.
Jonathan Harris as Manny, an absent-minded praying mantis with an English accent; the magician of P.T. Flea's circus troupe. Manny is Gypsy's husband. His magic act involves the 'Chinese Cabinet of Metamorphosis', which is really a Chinese food take-out carton.
Madeline Kahn as Gypsy, a gypsy moth who has beautiful patterns on either side of her wings. She is Manny's wife as well as his "lovely assistant" during his magic act.
Bonnie Hunt as Rosie, a black widow spider who is maternal toward the dung beetle, Dim, and the younger ants of the colony. She has apparently had twelve husbands.
Brad Garrett as Dim, a European rhinoceros beetle who has a childlike, impressionable, but clear-sighted character. He is usually mothered by the black widow spider, Rosie. He is the largest insect of the circus troupe, and also the transport to Heimlich, Tuck, Roll, and Rosie.
Michael McShane as Tuck and Roll, twin pill bugs who are Hungarian but speak a language that is entirely fictional and do a Russian Folk dance. Tuck and Roll occasionally argue with each other, but are usually the best of friends.
John Ratzenberger as P.T. Flea, the ringmaster of the circus troupe. Greedy and parasitic, P.T tries to avoid paying the troupe and will do anything for money - when Flaming Death becomes a hit, he's willing to be set on fire to fill the tent.
Roddy McDowall as Mister Soil, a member of the Ant Island council. This was Mr McDowall's last role before his death in 1998.
Edie McClurg as Dr. Flora, the nurse of Ant Island, another member of the council.
Jack Angel as the Bar-and-Grill Flies.
Frank Welker (Later David Lander in blooper speaking voice) as Thumper, a rabidly violent grasshopper used to threaten and beat ants. It seems only Hopper can control him, with nothing more than a snap of his fingers.
