Yak127: Just shy of 10 years since placing them, I’ve decided to archive the Mountain Top Medley geoart series.
I created this series the summer before I began high school by biking around my neighborhood and scoping out possible spots. We did a big kickoff CITO event, and then the caches went live.
At 14, I don’t think I grasped that maintaining more than 20 geocaches would take a lot of work. Plus, not all of the hides were super car friendly, and growing development in the area makes some locations less ideal than they were a decade ago.
Because of that, I’m driving around to each final location, collecting the containers and archiving the cache pages. It’s a step toward being a more responsible cache owner, ten years in the making!!
I want to thank everyone who took the time to find these geocaches, and more importantly everyone who provided maintenance when the real cache owner (me) was MIA. Revisiting each GZ, it’s clear geocachers along the way have replaced containers, swapped log books and even rethought hides in ways that helped them hold up long term. For your support, I’m very, very grateful!
If nothing else, I hope this series helped others enjoy the country roads I call home, and made for some scenic drives through rural Frederick County! Thank you all!
