Geocache Description:

I'm placing this cache here to remember my very first find back on Feb 18, 2008. The cache was called "Later Gater" (GCX8JE) and is now archived.


My son and I worked on the puzzle for the coords for an hour or so. It was lots of fun and it started me on this long and enjoyable journey of 5 years now. That previous cache was only about 100ft from here.

This path goes from Decatur High School to SW Dash Point Rd, but the cache is not located on school property. I would image the gates to the high school are closed and locked at night and I'm not sure if you can park on SW Dash Point Rd.

I brought my family to the Federal Way area back in 1980 from the Southern California area, Fullerton to be exact, only 4.25mi (as the crow flies) from Disneyland. We had three kids graduate from Decatur, the latest in '97.

Please hide exactly as it was found. During the growing season, it might be harder to find.

The container I won as a raffle prize at a GeoEvent a few months ago. There is room for swag and trackables. Also, an FTF coin as a prize, but please follow the instructions of the owner. If you can't, then leave it behind for the next cacher.

Congrats to Qaz&Kids for FTF!!!
