About This Item

Riding with Hopper

Original Mission: Jackson Hole, Vail, Snowbird, Whistler, Killington, Zermatt, Patagonia... you get the idea. The following update was reported from Florida:

Greetings, Fellow Geocachers!

I’m wondering if you might be able to offer a bit of assistance. You see – my owner can be a bit forgetful at times, and he seems to have left me behind while getting schooled at The Wakeboard Camp in Clermont, FL. The end of summer is at hand, and already there has been much talk of the upcoming snowboard season – and considering who I am, you might imagine I’m quite looking forward to it. I get lonely during wakeboard season…

So, here’s how you can help: I distinctly heard my owner talking of deploying a “board sport” cache somewhere in North Lake Tahoe – almost certainly at or near Squaw Valley USA. If you can help me make my way out west, and somewhere near Tahoe… I’ve got the highest of confidence that he will have a cache deployed as my destination. Check my TB page at geocaching.com (http://www.geocaching.com/track/track_detail.asp?ID=38459) or for late-breaking details.

So, lend a board a hand, help me get to Tahoe by whatever route you travel. Life IS the journey, and I want to see the world. Snap a photo of me (or US ;-) along the way, and post them with your comments. If you would like to contact my owner to give him an update, you can drop a line to billy@gotwake.com, or browse to www.gotwake.com/geocache.

Thanks for the pull!

Original Goal:

This little snowboard spent the '02-'03 winter gracing my apartment in Squaw Valley, but finally saw a little action when TB Hopper visited us, taking this right-sized board for a turn on the slopes.

Well, this board is headed to all my favorite places to ride, and all the incredible spots I've yet to visit. Grab this shredstick and take it along to YOUR favorite places. Summer or winter, northern or southern hemisphere - this board wants to visit as many ski resorts as possible. Won't you help?
