Current Goal

This TB is trying to take its hitchhiker, Smokey Bear, back to his home in the El Capitan National Forest in New Mexico, and then back to the starting point. The staring point is the Tin Cup Creek Cache in West Boggs Park in southwestern Indiana.

The TB has a hitchhiker that is a 4" tall stuffed Smokey Bear. This bear belongs to the grandchildren of the Park Ranger who has sent it along on this historic mission. Please honor their dream of having Smokey go home for a visit and then come back to thier collection.

I will at least move the bear to another park if anything. Very cool doll though.

We retrieved Smokey from the Wilderness after solving the mystery code, unlocking the combination box, reading the key word AND e-mailing it to Catbert but our log of the find was mysteriously deleted. Go figure #1016

Sorry for the long layover. We'd inventoried it for a while, waiting for an upcoming trip that never materialized. Thought Wilderness of Mirrors might be an appropriate temporary resting place before moving West.
