Today after work I opted to take a trail walk and grab a bunch of caches near North Table Mountain. It was just over a 4 mile hike. The weather started with light rain and my journey ended in sunshine. The weather was great. I saw one hawk, several crows (or ravens) and deer footprints. I was a little concerned with Table Mountain's reputation for high rattlesnake concentrations. Thankfully, I didn't see one. But it did cause one scare.
I was reaching toward this cache when I startled a large grasshopper. It's wings made the sound of a bug zapper as it soared away from my head. My head, filled with thoughts of rattlesnakes, froze. My pulse soared, my breath fled, and I screamed as my brain made the connection between the noise and my fear of being bitten. But a few seconds of being frozen like a deer and my brain figured out that the grasshopper scared me. There was no snake.
Good scare here. But I survived :) Logbook cover has a boxer pup. My boxer passed away several years ago. Still miss her. Thanks for a cool container and a great time. TFTC!

I'm working on a challenge cache where I need 42 more regular size caches. So I headed over to Golden to make some finds and chip away at that number. I parked nearby in the subdivision and hiked around to grab a few of the regulars on the Table Mountain trails. This wound up being my last find on the trails, the mud was clearing up but I think I'll get the others while hiking in from another parking lot. My phone had a little trouble zeroing in, but I spotted the bogey from above. Everything is in good shape at the cache. Thanks for the smiley! Find #2182.
