Went for a nice long hike/jog after work today. Have explored this area from the other trailhead a number of times, and decided to approach from the other one tonight. What a sweet, peaceful spot! Sat here for a minute to just enjoy the area. Didn't see the TB mentioned in the last log. Thank you for placing this cache!

It was a hot day to be out hiking the trails, but soon the magical sound of a mountain brook could be overheard from the incessant drones of airplanes (seriously, those pilots were at it all day). The cool water and tall trees were the best treasure! I wanted to keep hiking up that stream, but had to call it a day.

I took the "no trail, no problem" approach for this cache. When I reached GZ, i realized their is a great, well defined trail that led up to this one. I think I left my sunglasses here.

Thanks for the fun cache! CrumbCrunchers and I were in the area trying to track down another cache. Found this one along the way. Signed the log and replaced as found. All is well here! Thanks again for a great cache in a great location!

I managed to pick this cache up during another hike around the Blodgett area. After a couple of hikes here, I'm happy to have decoded the trail network and can finally move around efficiently. I managed to make the find on this one with no drama, and I'm very happy about that. Loved the area here. Thanks to the CO for the nice hike and placing this cache for everyone to find, TFTC.
