DryCreek: Easy Mystery

04/15/2022 By tigervhaga
This geocacher reported that there is a problem with this cache.

Cache #2108! A MUCH easier find today - walked up and spotted it right away. The geo-pup enjoyed his little geo-jaunt too. As SCH stated, the log is very wet/mushy, but we scratched our names in. TFTC!

#2090 - This was a nice quick find without all the leaves and weeds in the way (we searched previously in the summer). Anyway, the log is basically mush. We signed the log but it needs to be replaced pretty badly.

It was mostly sunny and kind of warm-ish at about 50, but the stiff breeze made it feel a lot colder. I followed the trails marked on my GPS to the cache site and then the search began. Fortunately, I had the right idea in my head and had the cache in hand a few minutes later. As others have said, the log is wet, though signable. TFTC!

My geohound, Cuervo, and I found this before attending the Community Celebration Event. TFTC. SL.

Solved the puzzle last Fall sometime, but now just finally getting around to doing a run around Dry Creek here. Cache in good shape, as is the log.

Today @WindAtMyBack and I came up north for an event. We saw many friends and decided to go caching afterward with @2lablovers . We targeted caches with a higher D/T rating.
After grabbing several, we stopped for lunch and then resumed our search. The final turmed out to be a little more challenging than easy. Nature helped provide a little additional camo. Tftc!

Always nice to come across a puzzle we can actually solve. Found with LostinDenver and WindAtMyBack.

Out with BCFF GanderGoose today. She made up another nice plan. Got all but one. Thank you for this placement BriGuy. This one took some searching.

After attending The 77s Went Where? event, #1 Beefers and I drove to the Dry Creek Open Space and hiked to many caches in this peaceful area. The puzzle was fun and the bonus was seeing this beautiful crane. We also saw a beaver and heard a bullfrog. Thanks for the placement, BriGuy!

Ha ha ha. I was out and about today, I've been wanting to get this one off my list and decided to stop by. I didn't really think this through as it was about 86 degrees and I was wearing jeans. Oh well, I want the find! I walked on over, grabbing a pokey stick along the way. LOL each time I stop nature seems to make this one exponentially more difficult. Turns out I had mis-heard the original help the CO gave, and this time I made the find. Log was a little wet, I let it wave in the breeze to dry it out a little. As I was walking back I realized I hadn't taken a nature photo like I had the last two trips. So I pulled out the phone to catch a duck swimming by, then I noticed a big crane photo bombing in the background. Thanks for the cache and the adventures! Find #2440

5/19/18: A couple days after my snake sighting I saw the CO at an event. I asked him to have mercy on me and give me a hint, I'm not sure I'd be able to concentrate very well here. I came out here on a cold day, figuring the creepy crawlies would be hiding today. Even armed with a hint I wasn't able to make the find. That's ok, on the way back an otter followed as I walked along the pond. I'll get it next time!

5/8/18: Ever wonder if self fulfilling prophesy is a true thing? Well, it turned out to be true today. I've had a sneaking suspicion I was due to see a snake. I've been so super careful, first over the weekend at Westminster City Park and I've had an eagle eye out today. I'm walking over from a nearby cache and something made me stop and turn around. And I saw about 2 feet of a yellow and dark brown tail sliding off the trail I had just passed. I froze and so did it. No rattle, so at least not venomous. (I started caching in Arkansas, where you just automatically assume a snake is venomous...) A couple cyclists approached and I stopped them to warn them. We decided to investigate and found it not too far from the trail. They kept talking about how big it was, I'm glad it wasn't my imagination. I'd say it was about 4 feet long, and its pattern was kind of pretty. Too bad I think they're creepy, I mean how can something without appendages move so fast? It seemed to freeze, not sure if we were a threat or not. Eventually it decided to slowly continue on its way and so did we. I had to kind of talk myself back into finding caches. As I got to GZ, a frog jumped into the pond. I almost screamed. Decided I should probably call it a day, as I probably wouldn't be able to get my head in the game. I'll be back to change this to a smiley, what are the chances of seeing a snake twice on the way to the same cache - right???

No rattle is a good thing

Pretty and creepy at the same time

Finally - after six attempts and a few hints, I found it! Nice hide!

Perfect day for the walk to this one! Neat spot for a hide! Signed log. Thanks for the cache!

It is well hidden but I found It! TFTC!!!!

Well this 1.5 difficulty certainly have us stumped . Even after a hint from CO and Mrs. Soloyo making five attempts it is a DNF

Looked for a spot where we could do some walking and caching at da same time and this place fit the bill. Lot's of muggles out and about, walking dogs and biking and even saw one fishing. Scared up a little duck at the cache, don't know who was more scared, the duck or us. TFTC.

Glad to get this well camo'd cache today. Startled a duck from her nest. SL. TFTC.
