Geocache Description:


Madison like this road. In particular she seems to gravitate towards any puddles, wet areas or other locations that would mean she would be mud from the paws up. This cache is in an area that suits that requirement. It's relatively dry to get to now but I wouldn't want to do it in the early spring or after a heavy rain. The cache is a medium pill bottle, i.e., bigger than a film canister. 


The first cache in the series came about walking Madison. I was out of the country for a year and when I came back and started walking Madison again, it struck me that there were some good locations for caches where we walked. After the first couple of caches I thought it would be neat to develop an area of caches that were close together and that people, if they so desired could come, park and find 11 caches in the matter of a couple of hours without driving all over the place (the furthest apart caches are only a little of a km apart). I put out a couple of park and grabs, a couple of regular sized caches, and the remainder are of the small/micro variety. There is only one nano and I purposely made it a difficult one. That was the only one I believed would be the only difficult find - some people disagreed but that's geocaching. As I was getting to the end of my planned hides, I thought it might be an interesting challenge to have people log how long it took them to find all the caches. Reviewing the geocaching rules and discussing it with geocaching.com, I realized that it couldn't be a "formal" challenge. So for interest and bragging rights, let me know how long it took you to find all 11 caches. The time would start when your first find was put back in its hide and would end when the final cache was signed and replaced. If you already have one find, no worries, the clock starts when you leave that GZ. With two finds, use them as the start and finish points but add 10 minutes to you time to allow for searching, logging and replacing the final cache after you reach its GZ. With three or more finds, go with a group but don't get involved in caches you've already found and just take the groups time. I don't know how many people will take this up but the challenge is there.
