*gln: ### ARCHIVING CACHE ###

Since you haven't repaired your cache I can only assume that your priorities have changed and you’ve gone in a different direction.

While I feel that we should hold the location for you we can't do so forever.
If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the VERY near future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

Let me know if I can be of assistance in the future.

Thanks,

Geocache Description:

Come take a drive on Highway 125.  The series of caches is designed to take you for a trip on the winding and scenic Highway 125 as is cuts through some of the prettiest country in southern Missouri and northern Arkansas.  The series begins just south of the Finley River in northern Chirstian County Missouri and snakes its way down Highway 125 to end at Highway 62 just west of Yellville Arkansas.

Some towns you will drive through include Sparta, Oldfield, Chadwick, Garrison, Bradleyville, Rueter, Protem, and Peel.  You'll pass lots of little cemeteries, cross Swan Creek, ride the free ferry across Bull Shoals Lake, and enjoy numerous scenic views.  Cell phone coverage is spotty down this way, so I suggest you bring a GPS with cache information already loaded.  Also, if you're making the whole drive, make sure you're vehicle is gassed up, because there are not many gas stations on this route.

Each cache in this series is a log only micro, so you will need to bring your own pen to sign the log.  All are placed along side roads that intersect with Highway 125, or at safe pull off spots where you can pull your vehicle entirely off the road.

Most of the caches in this series are placed in cedars, so if this tree irritates your skin please take precautions.  Also, warmer months means poison ivy may be present at some of the cache locations.  Watch out for that too.  And ticks.  Don't forget the ticks.

I've tried to make these caches as easy to find as possible.  My intention is that these caches be found, not to try to trick or conceal the cache from you.  If you're having difficultly finding a particular cache, please read the hint.

I hope you enjoy the drive and the caches.
