Geocache Description:

It's not that easy being green
Having to spend each day the color of the leaves
When I think it could be nicer being red, or yellow, or gold
Or something much more colorful like that

But green's the color of spring
And green can be cool and friendly-like
And green can be big like a mountain
Or important like a river Or tall like a tree--It's Not Easy Being Green by Kermit the Frog!


Consider the plight of the amazing amphibians, living part of their lives in water and part on land. How will they cross the road safely to get to the promised pond?
 
So kudos to Clearwater Conservancy for alerting drivers to amphibian crossings in season along the Scotia Range Road. This cache celebrates our froggy friends.
 
You're looking for a camouflaged regular container that has room for trade items. The log itself is in a film canister placed within a green object in the regular container.  There is parking about 175 feet down the road from the cache--see parking coordinates.
 
The hint below is a giveaway.
 
The "frog crossing the road" jokes were so lame that I'll just leave you with this:
Why did the frog go to the mall?  She wanted to go hopping. (Groan. Or rather Gribbit!)
 
(Though my husband, JBT, knows nothing about this cache, I have asked him to be disqualified from the FTF lest anyone think he had advance knowledge.)


Congratulations to TheGeoSleuth for the FTF!!!
