We are placing this cache as a way of saying "Farewell" to all the wonderful Colorado geocachers that we have met during the past 3 1/2 years that we've spent in this beautiful state. The US Army is sending us to our next duty station where we will have a fresh set of caches to find. We will really miss everything about Colorado but hopefully we can come back someday whether that be in a few years or after retirement. Enjoy the hunt and thanks for all the great CO cahes!! :)

HAPPY GEOCACHING!!!!!

Fantastic cache! A lot of USAF and Army swag from Sarc. As a vet myself I couldn't help but chuckle at what was inside but it was a great find.

Took a two-and-a-half-week trip with my son (Folboter WBF) who had just graduated from high school. We went from Ohio through Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Calilfornia, Nevada, Utah, Colorado, Kansas, Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, and back to Ohio. We visited lots of great spots like Carlsbad Caverns, San Diego, LA, Sequoia National Park, Yosemite, and Pike's Peak. What a fantastic trip full of great memories!

And of course we did some geocaching along the way! We found caches in 82 new counties for us. We found five state's oldest caches (Tennessee, Texas, California, Nevada, and Colorado). We also visited seven webcams and found 22 virtuals, 19 earthcaches, various challenge caches, a few gadget caches, and lots of traditionals ... almost 200 total caches for the trip! Thanks to the cache owners for putting these great caches out there for us to enjoy on our trip!

We love finding large caches! Thanks for the hide!

We stopped by to enjoy this park while vacationing from Chaska, Minnesota. What stunning terrain on display here! Jonas scored the find—hard to miss, really. Smile We really loved the cactus garden we passed on the way. Thanks!

Checking out nearby balanced rock and saw this large was just up the trail. A quick jaunt and the goods were in hand. Sadly, no TBs are currently located here. TNLN, SL, and replaced as found. TFTC!
