Welcome to the TPWD series which stands for Tom Plays With Ducks. Tom, aka Electric Water Boy, gave me the idea for the name since he had worked for TPWD, Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, and I currently do. This is a geo-art series containing 24 puzzle caches and 1 wherigo cache. The series has 3 main categories: wildlife, state parks in Texas and lakes in Texas. TEN of the puzzle caches are GADGET caches, all found in AMMO CANS. The difficulty rating is higher on the gadgets because you have to solve the puzzle and actual gadget cache. You must sign all logs to get credit for the cache. Good luck!

The Puzzle
Hubbard Creek Reservoir (Hubbard Creek Lake) is on Hubbard Creek in the Brazos River basin about six miles northwest of Breckenridge in northwestern Stephens County. Construction began in May 1961 and the dam was completed in December 1962. In the 1990s, the reservoir had a conservation storage capacity of 317,800 acre-feet and a conservation surface area of 15,250 acres at an elevation of 1,183 feet above mean sea level, with a lake shoreline of 100 miles. The lake is owned by the West Central Texas Municipal Water Authority and serves as a source of water for industry, mining, and nearby municipalities, including Abilene, Anson, Breckenridge, and Albany. The drainage area of the reservoir is some 1,107 square miles.
