This is a redoux of the prior Geocache that was placed here 6/22/2014 by Blimpo. The cache was missing and has been archived. I am replacing it with a new cache to honor Blimpo who got me started Geocaching with all his wonderful hides here in Saranac Lake many years ago.
Thank you Blimpo for all you have done for the Geocaching Community here in the Saranac Lake area.
