Geocache Description:


Cache seekers assume all risks involved in seeking this cache, so be sure to check road/trail conditions and be properly prepared. The cache and route may be under snow during winter and a Northwest Forest Pass might be required.

Star Trek first aired over 50 years ago. Created by Gene Roddenberry in 1964, the franchise has spawned numerous television series, films, comics, novels, games, and fan fiction...and now there's a Trek-themed GeoArt series in the Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest.

Medicine had made significant scientific and technological progress in Star Trek. Doctors of the 23rd and 24th century had advanced equipment to help them treat a wide variety of injuries and ailments. That technological assistance was especially helpful considering the various species the doctors encountered, as alien anatomy and biology could vary markedly. Some starships, such as USS Voyager, even had an Emergency Medical Hologram (EMH) programmed with more than 50 million gigaquads of data about more than 3 thousand cultures.
