Geocache Description:

Easy hike on the connector trail along Billy Creek. This trail also begins at the end of Pinecrest Street, just off E White Mountain Road.

Our dearest friend Maria passed away at the ripe old age of 86 last weekend. She loved to play poker with our kids, so much so that our children changed the name of the card game "Black Marah" to "Black Maria". While Maria may be gone she will not be forgotten, not by my children, my nieces or nephew or any of the people from the child crisis center that she spent numerous years volunteering for. She would get such a kick out of being remembered this way. Hope you all enjoy the cache.
