It's back!
When you are out geocaching, what is it you wish for most often? Another cache in my "I Just Wanna Sign The Log!" series. I'll take you right to the cache, but you'll have a puzzle or challenge to solve in order to sign the log.
So what do you wish for when you're caching? Extra batteries for the GPS'r or a juice pack for the phone. Perhaps you hope there is an ice cream parlor nearby. Maybe you forgot a pen. Rain gear. Better footwear. The CO at your side (maybe for help, maybe to slap 'em).
I probably wished for all of them at one time or another, but there is one thing I seem to wish for more often than anything else. Once you get to the cache site, you'll see what I wish for.
Once you're at the parking coordinates, look for two big rocks at the trailhead. About 70ish feet or so beyond the rocks, on your right, down low, are a couple of bamboo stakes, 6-12 inches with top part painted yellow. Enter here. Once you're through the initial brush, you'll see a meandering path. It can get a little mushy but I put down some wood chips. You may have to duck or tilt your head or step over/around minor obstacles, but it should be a fairly easy path. The old path was marked with orange spray paint, the new one with yellow paint. At the end is my cache. (Update 5/21, muggles came through and added some additional paint but it doesn't ruin anything).
The previous cache, GC6QDNF had 51 favorites of 70 finds. This cache does not do well with large groups. 2-3 is ideal, 4 will probably work, 5+ and it's too crowded. There are many decoys. Additional information at the cache site. Feel free to mention in your logs what you wish for most-unless it's the same as me. Let's keep that a secret for other seekers of this cache.
While it is winter accessible, I don't recommend it. This is an 'experience' cache and to get that full experience its best to wait for for Mother Nature to green things up.
