You are looking for a camoed PB jar roughly 20 feet above the ground. TREE CLIMBING REQUIRED, but fairly easy if you are athletic or tall. Remember to be safe and always bring a friend! The tree you are looking for should be pretty obvious, Jar contains a pen and a log. 

Congrats to the brave animjason and sissadies on the co-FTF, wet and cold and from what im told quite an adventure!

Shardik is one of the twelve guardians of the Beams that hold up the Dark Tower. It is a cyborg bear that stands over forty feet tall and has a contraption affixed to its head resembling a satellite dish (known as a thinking cap by Roland). Shardik was built by North Central Positronics, the mysterious company which was a part of The Imperium thousands of years prior to the events of The Dark Tower Series. Shardik was known as Mir by tribal groups who once lived in the woods of his domain, which in their language means, the world beneath the world. Shardik's functional longevity is most likely due to its internal nuclear power source.

Did not see it from the ground and so I climbed up the most obvious tree and still no luck.
Looked around about a 50’ radius with no luck either.

Not that I didn't find. Can see from the ground, but it is out of my climbing ability. Not going to be able to claim this one, but happy to find this park and path. TFTC

Well, found it, but was not willing to shimmy 200+ lbs on THAT limb.

Great Find - The find was easy, getting the actual cache was not quite as easy. Brought extra TOTT's and had to do some on-site altering of TOTT's to obtain the goal. a 90-minute venture but well worth it. At one point a TOTT chain saw crossed my mind. A few minutes of "Happy Dance" when the cache was actually in hand. A challenge, but worth it, gets a fav.
