Day 3 - 2019 Cachemas in STL: Reindeer Games Multi-Cache
Strider: I came out to Forest Park today to check caches. There are a lot of trees down just after the start and a lot down near the end. So I started walking the trail after the last road crossing and couldn't find any tacks. Even the ones at the final two trees are gone. The cache itself was in very good shape, in it's original spot with a dry logbook and assorted other items. But since there are so many tacks missing I pulled the final and I'm archiving this. Thank you to everybody who looked and for all the fun logs.

Congratulations to bmzdaddy, he finally got his Cachemas FTF ornament!!!!!
Day 3 - 2019 Cachemas in STL THE SLAGA TWELVE DAYS OF CACHEMAS ARE BACK!!! The CACHE Sled needs headlights!!!!
Here’s how it works: For 12 consecutive days beginning December 12th (Day 1), a new cache will be published and every day afterwards until December 23rd. If you are able to First to Find, FTF, one of these daily caches, an FTF Cachemas Ornament will be in the container for you to keep.
Once again, L Frank has designed a unique ornament that can be converted to a cache container for a future hide; or, you may keep it, your choice. PLEASE, if you get an FTF on one of the 12 days, do not go for another one until day 13, let someone else have the fun.
Again, this year, there will be a Bonus Cache on the 13th day, December 24th. EVERYONE is eligible to FTF the bonus whether or not you have FTFed a Cachemas hide. This cache can only be found by using all the codes written on the inside of the container lid of each daily cache. Keep these codes and use them to solve the location of the Bonus cache which will publish on the final day, December 24th. The Bonus solution will be included in the final day Cache description and as I promised, it is not a difficult solution.
THE BONUS CACHE CONTAINS TWO LARGE PREMIUM GEOCOINS AS WELL AS AN AWESOME ORNAMENT!
Ok, this one is called "Reindeer Games", we all know that reindeer are fleet of hoof and make good time on dark winter nights.
So on Dasher on Prancer, bmzdaddy, on Terribikes+, on Paulgracie, and SWASeeker...... You will be following a trail of reflectors and reflecting tape that will lead you to the cache. This will NOT go through the zoo, they won't let me do that. Snowshoes or cross country skis might be needed in case of snow or blizzard, that won't stop us!
This is a Night Cache, Y’all,
So warm up your flashlights before heading out!!!
To find the cache, first get to the starting coordinates.
There are two types of reflectors, fire tacks and reflecting tape.
Once you arrive at the starting coordinates, look around with your flashlight for a small reflector. As you near that reflector, search the area for the next one. And so on…
Follow the reflectors until you spot TWO reflectors side by side. Turn around & look for THREE reflectors in a triangle. Search the area of the three reflectors for the cache.
Watch for fallen trees, sticks & vines!
This area is closed between 10 PM and 6 AM.
MERRY CACHEMAS and GOOD LUCK!!!
