Geocache Description:

Everybody who meets Tekka adores her and now you can pick up a special badge in her honor. There are 4 different badge styles to choose from. This is a nice little hike in a dog friendly canyon that is just right for any old fat man out there!

There have been a few caches up this canyon but they are no longer around. Tekka picked this spot because it is full of her favorite things and it is away from the crowds of rock climbers so maybe it will stay around for a while. The canyon is narrow so it might be hard to pick up the satellites. This spot is a bit more open than lower in the canyon but you may have to resort to Aim High's technique of hoisting your gps up on a long stick to get a reading. The coordinates listed are from a Garmin. The Magellan had a north reading of 36.807

Feel free to take a badge and if you feel inclined you can leave something in return.

Trail can be quite icy in winter so please be very careful. Ice cleats would be very nice to bring up here on snowy days if you have some. Cache placement was designed to be accessible even with snow on the ground. Please don't tear the camoflauge off the top. Cache is accessed thru a door on the south side.

If you haven't yet met Tekka in person then hopefully we will meet up some day on the trail.

You will find it very difficult to get a good satellite fix in the deep canyon so find a nice comfortable log and sit a spell. Now look north north east to a rock face. There is a dead tree leaning against it. For more details click on the punctuation at the end of this sentence
