Geocache Description:


Here is my Redux of these Night Caches. Originaly these were placed out here by Trackz man in 2011. This is part of the Cline Buttes Recreation Area. This is the first of 4 Night Caches and then a bonus Night cache. The way into this area is from Fryrear Rd and turn east on Sage Ranch Rd. Park at the parking coordinates where the fun begins. There is other parking spots but this one is close to the begining and end. Use a strong flashlight to locate the reflectors (I used a mag light with an LED bulb) and put the flashlight at eye level and look around for a reflection back at you then proceed to the reflector. You might have to span out in about a 20 foot radius from the reflector to locate the next one and so on for each waypoint. Just a little info on the reflectors. They will be either Red, White or Green and will be in a square or diamond position. square means mainly straight forward or possibly straight back. In a diamond shape look towards the left or right. At the final you will find a blue reflector on the container or near it and there might be another color of reflector by it since blue doesn't show up as well. The distance of the waypoints vary from around 100 feet to over 400 feet. Also don't forget to bring a writing stick and paper to record the numbers engraved on the container(they are also on the log sheet) that will be used for the bonus/puzzle night cache.

Also a thank you to Trackz man for the original series and for adopting the one remaning Nights Walk caches to me. Also to bubblegummers for keeping some of the original waypoints and to Tbird2LM for a great map of the waypoints. All of which helped in the redux of this series. 

Remember your in the forest with trees, sage brush, rocks, hills, canyons, animals and so on, so be careful and watch your step as you go. 

Now on to A Nights Hike #1:

Once you get to the given coordinates you will find 3 Fire Tacks to let you know you are at the starting spot. From here start scaning for the first reflector to the north with the Fire tacks behind you. Your looking for 6 waypoints and the final. This is a log only container and as always please put it back as found for the next night cacher. 

*** Congratulations to BendCacheCollectors, Bubblegummers, djkfisher, Shawna426 and TurtleLP on the Co FTF's.*** 

Also it was fun to tag along with them and hear the phrase "There it is" at each waypoint when they found the next reflector. It was so fun to do this in a group and watching them complete the series. Also if anyone wants someone to walk this series with them just let me know and if I am not busy I will gladly make the trek again.
