I was visiting here and found a beautiful spot for a cache. I hope you don't get board with this one. You may need a tool to get in to the log. So don't forget to bring your cachers tool kit with allen wrench's and such. It's probably better to do this one during the day too. Good luck and I hope you like it. If you do give me a fav. Cache on!
In 1882 a small group of Benedictine monks arrived in Oregon to found an abbey similar to the one they had left behind high in the Alpine village of Engelberg, Switzerland. The SS Columbia was headed north from San Francisco, carrying a small band of monks and nuns in search of a new home. One of its passengers, Fr. Adelhelm Odermatt, OSB, had recently written a nostalgic letter to his abbot at Engelberg Abbey in the mountains of Switzerland, saying, “I hunger and thirst for mountains, for during seven years in America I have not yet seen a decent hill.” But Oregon, he wrote, “is said to be a kind of Paradise, if one can speak of such a thing on this earth.” There is a lot more about the Abby on the associated web site.
