This cache was transferred owners from Tim Usko to Harpster68

This small cache can be found while on the fountain creek trail or you can park nearby at the stratmoor valley trailhead. there is a playground there too. The Cache is not camouflaged (its actually red) so please be sure to re-hide it. There is enough room for small trade items. FTF Prize was a Gold Van Buren Dollar Coin & an awesome unique geo-coin from Canada.

Yaman, Yaman, Yaman, (yah mon) this word is from the Philippines and it means treasure, it can mean wealth or riches, but is mainly used to describe what each of us value. For me the Geo-Caching experience can be described with one word -My Yaman- or (My treasure) not because of what we find, but because of the quality time with others and the adventure or hunt to find it. I have two of these yaman caches I will get out there.

**Update 6 MAR 09 - from the logs just wanted to drop a note to be careful when in the area, I have never had a problem but I have seen the occasional group of teen's in the area and when I hid this cache I used the fountain creek trail, not the parking area near the playground, so I cannot vouch for the neighborhood, but it sounds like it may be a rough area. If there continues to be un-enjoyable experiences I may move the cache**

Congrats to Drnetwork on the FTF!

Even with the hint I couldn’t find this one. Found some nice red roses and a ton of trash, but no cache. The drop structure in the creek is cool.

Quick find using the hint. Signed log under Keslen (dated 2/26/16) and replaced container as found. Thanks for the cache.

We needed a cache for the day and this one was it. Quite tough with all the mosquitoes after us. Finally we found it. The log inside was wet and moldy. We had a small scrap of paper that we could sign. Maybe the next person could supply a new piece of paper. Tftc.

Took me a while as no one has found this in over a year. Had to dig for it amongst leaves and sticks but finally got it. Container is brown now, not red. If possible, it needs to be moved to a different location to avoid flood waters. I will replace it as where I found it. TFTC!

New hint for future cachers... No stone Unturned. :)

Will watch this one. I have to wait until the camper in the green tent moves on as he is too close to GZ.
