Geocache Description:

Want to relive your youth?

This multicache is based on the infamous Bovill Run. Traditionally the run is a beer-drinking journey taken by college students who stop for brews at every bar between Moscow and Bovill. There are stories of large U-Haul trucks loaded with students going from town to town, bar to bar.

However, this multicache is the rated "G" family version of the Bovill Run.

Probably not accessible in the winter unless you like to snowshoe or xcountry ski.

Multicache is a hodgepodge collection of containers (or not) containing coordinates to the next waypoint and final destination where one can find an Idaho geocoin as a FTF prize. One way trip is about 35 miles.

Each of the stops is near a libation establishment on the run.

This tour will start at a place known as The Plant in Moscow. From there you will travel to the unincorporated town of Joel upon which you will be just south of the establishment known as Dirty Ernies (green building to the North). Next stop will take you through Troy which boasts a whopping number of fine drinking establishments within a very short distance, practically next door of each other, they include the Dawg Haus, JB's, and Diane's. Next on the list is Deary and the White Horse and Fuzzy's. Helmer is the next quick stop, and finally Bovill, with the famous Bailey's Bar, Shooter McGee's Irish Pub (up for sale for those interested in their dream of owning a real Irish Pub) and the Elk Tavern.

*** Important Info***
