It's A Cattle Guard! #48

Set by a geocaching team who can’t resist the fantastic opportunities for magnetic caches in and around a cattle guard.

On one side of a standard cattle guard, off the road, there is usually a bypass cattle gate; often the area on either side offers a convenient place to park

As always, look carefully for unfriendly flora or fauna before reaching.

If cache contains water, please dump it out, sign log (printed on water proof paper), replace lid on rust resistant container, and replace where you found it. Thanks.

p.s. This cache has a unique history in that it was initially published with an East coord rather than West. This placed it somewhere in China, near the Gobi desert! During that time, before the reviewer caught it, we "visited" a handful of TBs - putting an extra 13,000 miles on them! A number of them had just started from zero miles in a race and we had to delete all the logs and re-log them to this cache in the correct GZ. Just think, you are finding a cache that was "originally" located in China!

FTF congrats go to Pauleefox and Whizzkid on 2-24-15!

Taking a drive on a Sunday afternoon. Beautiful day on the last weekend of the month! Leaf colors along the creeks are beautiful! It's hard to beat an old cottonwood for color in the fall. Thanks for the quick find! So sad they closed this little park. If you avoided the poison ivy, it was a nice spot to watch the creek.
