'Daylight Fading, Come and Waste Another Year' Letterbox Hybrid

This cache has been archived.

Gabrielol: I have been meaning to come and collect this cache for a while and finally had time today. I dont remember there being a gate right next to the parking area at GZ when I hid this cache. I scaled down the cliff and then walked toward the grove of trees. I forgot which one I placed it on, but then found it untethered from the tree.

These containers seem to be attractive for fire ants in the summer. No one wants to deal with that. Maybe this lonely hide will do better in the tropics…

Geocache Description:


The Stamp pad and stamp stay in the cache! They are not swag, please leave them in the container.

This is my fourth cache on the Trinity Trails and the first ammo can I have placed out here. You can either look for this cache while hiking along the trails, or grab a parking spot at the nearby neighborhood park and walk down the path. There is easy access to this cache, but it can be pretty muddy after it rains. One of my favorite albums of all time is the 1996 Counting Crows release, "Recovering the Satelites". The 3rd track, 'Daylight Fading", features these lyrics:

Daylight fading, come and waste another year
All the the anger and the eloquence are bleeding into fear
Moonlight creeping around the corners of our lawn
When we see the early signs of daylight fading
We leave just before it's gone

Have fun and stay safe. Please be careful on these trails are there are all sorts of potential wildlife encounters. Before you go, please make sure to check on the website if the trailheads are open or other news:
