BisonChasers: ---
Thanks to all those adventurous cachers that have found their way up here for a smiley
Started off the day with a totally different agenda, but a ways down the road we checked the weather and noted the unseasonably cold and cloudy forecast near our destination and decided that shorts and a t-shirt weren't going to cut it for our adventure, so we hung a u-turn and brainstormed for a new adventure for the day
We decided to stick close to home since the forecast was much better and chose to check on our caches up in the Sheep Creek Wilderness Study Area near the Sleeping Giant
We placed five (5) large nano caches up her back in 2013 and have had a few adventures trek up here for a few smilies, and a few taking advantage of the opportunity to place their own caches up in this beautiful local
Unfortunately, today we discovered that three (3) of the five (5) were missing, which would explain the few DNFs
Found Driftwood on a Fossilized Beach in place, but the log was wet and moldy
Searched for Ladybug Mortuary but it was nowhere to be found
The 2-foot tall cairn that had held Cairn-tankerous had been dismantled and the cache was gone
Found Ridge Top Windbreak in place hanging in the tree
The stack of rocks where Little Baldy is Stoned was hidden was still intact but the cache was no longer under the pile
It is with great sadness that we are archiving all five (5) of these caches as we have come to realize that the wilderness is not the place for these nano caches
