Current Goal

Will you help us in our “Mill Race”?
This Travel Bug has a mission to move over 1700 miles from Butte Creek Mill in Eagle Point, Oregon to its destination cache “Skippys Bluff” GCWE89 at Beckman Mill in Beloit, Wisconsin. Both are historic gristmills. This TB's mission began on Dec 30, 2008 when it was placed in the The "Butte Creek Mill" cache. Another Mill Race Travel Bug has also been place in a cache in South Carolina. Let’s see which one gets to its destination first! Help this one make its way home to Wisconsin! Thank you!
