At the starting coordinates you will find a pig. What? Who said pigs can't fly? Wait, this pig is here to stay.

Your first task is to arrive at the given coordinates. Take a moment to capture a fun photo to attach in your log later. Although this is not required it will be greatly appreciated and will earn you bonus points.  

Now you will need to figure out which way the pig is looking (this will be obvious). 

Follow his line of sight across the road.

From here you will be looking for a container under a rock at a base of a tree.

!!!Congratulations to animjason & Sissadies for the FTF!!!

Out spontaneously geocaching with family on vacation. Don't have a pen/pencil as we weren't planning on caching! Took pictures of the cache to prove we found it. Thanks for the cache!

No luck here, very crowded area. Maybe it's gone. The pig is cute.

I had the pleasure of discovering the old pink, pink, pink pig with PayMeCache while on our way to the St. Hilary glacier. We had far too much fun at the pig's expense and agreed that we needed to place a geocache nearby. I got to be the beta tester and help shoot coordinates. Thanks to the CO for placing this fun hide and for letting me be a part of it.

On my way for alittle four wheeling to look for a new hide.

Last time I was back in here was over five years ago for a hiking Event.

Easy find, but where's the stamp?

Thanks!

I ended up on an epic adventure with yellowdogs and jREST. I really wanted to go and find GC19. So, I picked a five day stretch to make my attempt. I roped in a couple of caching friends into the misadventure and we were off with my two geodogs. The five of us made an interesting group. We drove over 3000 miles on the trip going out and back. Since we enjoy the same types of caches it was easy to come up with a list. We target the three main kinds of caches: oldies, virtuals, and earthcaches. We threw in a few others mainly to grab a cache in the 72 counties we headed through. Really got to light up that county map. Ended up with 152 caches in the found pile.

The first night was a little rough. We got a late start and headed into some heavy rain. We already had a hotel reserved in Sioux City, IA; so we knew we had to get there. Found one cache to fill the day in for me. The first day was spent caching our way across northern Nebraska. We had a line of counties that we wanted to grab. Some pretty country once you get further west. It is always nice to see the varied topography of the states we visit. After finding 35 caches, we called it a night in Scotts Bluff.
Day 2 dawned sunny, but cool. We wanted to get past Denver, but our route was longer than anticipated. So we ended up a little short. Got to see some interesting spots though. We hit the high point in Nebraska, cached along a lonely stretch of highway in Colorado, picked up some virtuals in the Denver area, before heading into the mountains for the Cache Across America. We continued exploring the mountains before finding a place to sleep for the night west of Denver.

On the third day, we made it into Denver after some virtuals and then headed south through the mountains to GC 19. We made it. The road was open and the weather perfect. Lots of warnings about the fire danger. We picked up a few other caches and even took a detour into New Mexico so yellowdogs could light up the state. Nice. I love it when a plan comes together.

Day 4 found us in Trinidad. We had a long way to go and a short time to get there. Luckily, at this point the route was pretty straight forward. We headed north roughly to Nebraska. We did take a detour to grab GC31. I already had it, but we were too close not to add it to the list. We ended up caching longer than anticipated due to a lack of sleeping options. Finally found a place in Thedford.

Our last day was short and to the point. We had a line of counties between us and the Iowa border and we wanted to find a cache in each of them. We found one or two caches in each of them before hitting the border at noon. Right on schedule After that, it was just a matter of beating feet home.

Thanks to all the COs that placed or created a cache for us to find on this trip. Without you, we would not have found have the interesting places we ended up. I couldn't think of a better way to spend vacation. We used our Team Barcelona stamp to mark all the physical logs.

Well, this is an unusual sight. Not expecting to find something like this. We struggled for a bit trying to figure out what to do with the hint. Eventually jREST came up with the right idea. We found the cache and headed back down the road.
