I managed to pick this one up on the inbound leg of what I’ll call overnight Sentinel Loop+, taking the free / hard way. I’ve never been here before, so I appreciate the nice caches along the route to serve as my motivation. I came up to this one by following what I’ll call, “the secret spur trail.” The container and log are in great shape, despite the fact that no one has found this cache in almost three years and there are signs of heavy muggle activity (shelters) nearby. I really like containers like this…quality.

It was a great bonus that this one hasn’t been found for almost two years, because I keep track of lonely cache stats for challenges. With this find, I now have (counting only 1 year or more lonely) a total of 181 years, 6 months lonely time on 81 caches from 11 North American States & Provinces

Thanks to the CO for placing this nice cache for everyone to find, TFTC.

Found this with my son, Trailbuster1 while on our RTP backpacking trip! Nice, big bison tube but the log is a bit damp.
Thanks!
