Geocache Description:


Cache is NOT at the posted coordinates, you'll need to pay homage to a fallen cache to discover the location.

In September of 2018 the geocaching playground I have grown to adore was ravaged by a swift and brutal wildfire.  Scrutinizing burn maps revaled that many tried and true caches were potentially lost, including several of my own. Very recently I received notification that the 50 beloved boy scout puzzles had been let go with a wish that the area should be repopulated.  I'm happy to have some new grounds with which to share my passion for Payson Canyon with y'all.  My gratitude is extended to Baldin' Eagle for enticing me to the area with his ambitious scout series that helped me explore the depths and heights on display for those willing to wander.

 

This cache is meant as a tribute to all the caches that have fallen to the fire, and a spark to ignite the rebirth of these beautiful grounds.

"Honour" by VNV Nation

Passive fields. January two thousand and twelve. 
A nation that stands alone.
Cold voices, faces pale, gathered unto their judgement day.
Such words remain unspoken. Such pride remains unbroken.
Just mothers to stand in vain and cry.
Tears and medals in the rain.

Shall I recall when justice did prevail? 
No reason to be found why reason did fail.
The all clear resounding. 
The way was clear to rebuild this land.

Shall I call on you to guide me well,
to see our hopes and dreams fulfilled?
On this day of our ascension.

Stand your ground this is what we are fighting for.
For our spirit and laws and ways.
Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war.
For heaven or hell we shall not wait.

Shall I think of honour as lies 
or lament it's aged slow demise?
Shall I stand as a total stranger
on this day in this stone chamber?

The all clear resounding. 
The way was clear to rebuild this land.
Shall I call on you to guide me well. 
To see our hopes and dreams fulfilled.
On this day of our ascension, on this day we praise the fallen.

Stand your ground this is what we are fighting for. 
For our spirit and laws and ways.
Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war. 
For heaven or hell we shall not wait.

Shall I think of honour as lies 
or lament it's aged slow demise?
Shall I stand as a total stranger
on this day in this stone chamber?
