Annie's Place

Greetings from the UK?. We are on our holidays!!! We are on a 12-day road trip around Colorado, Utah and Wyoming (a geocaching road trip from Denver to Yellowstone and back again), staying in Air BnB’s en route. Day 1: One cache near the first Air BnB to get us started Day 2: Morning caching around Denver and then headed out on the Mount Evans scenic route ?Day 3: Denver to Colorado Springs, collecting a few caches en-route. Made a snap decision to head out to collect some earthcaches , discovered the amazing Garden of the Gods , Manitou Springs, and the lovely Memorial park. Day 4: A trip up to Pike’s Peak and then a slow cache and dash to Glenwood Springs ? . Day 5: Cached to Vernal via Craig and a scenic drive through the National Dinosaur Monument to Harper’s corner . Day 6: Set off from Vernal, visited the brilliant National Dinosaur Monument , then drove the scenic roadway to Rock Springs, more caching en-route. Day 7: Today was Wildlife Day! Rock Springs to Jackson, and the Teton National park. We saw: Pronged antelope, 2 Moose(s), Bighorn Mountain, Elk herds , an osprey . Day 8: The day we saw three bears !! to West Yellowstone, collected a cache in Idaho. Arrived Yellowstone late morning and had a fantastic time in Yellowstone , amongst the Bison. We had a lot of snow showers???. We watched Old Faithful and did lots of of geography homework earthcaches and virtuals . Day 9: A great morning exploring Yellowstone Park -tastic and loved the stroll around the mud pots. On the long, slow drive to Lander, were we spotted Pronghorns and Mountain Sheep – in the road! We did some caching en-oute, as well as stopping for some chocolates from the Cowboy Chocolatier in Meeteetse. Day 10: Today we met up with a local cacher, who had kindly offered to show us the sights/caches of Lander. And… had an amazing day, not only did we pick up some fun caches, we walked some beautiful trails, in great company and learnt a lot about the local history. Original Wildman was incredibly generous with his time and his hospitality. Day 11. A cache and dash to Cheyenne via Laramie, saw lots of Pronghorns and Jack rabbits , collected 23 caches and spotted some very large cowboy boots in downtown Cheyenne.
Day 12: Our penultimate day, and last full day started with a great breakfast at Epic Egg ,we then started the drive to Denver, with a final epic days caching as we had several challenge caches to pick up (with great D/T ratings) and some by Egreog, as his came recommended by the Original Wildman .
Day 13, and 1/2 day in and around Denver prior to flying home to blighty. Leisurely start with breakfast at Pete's Kitchen, then a trip around the Denver Art Museum, a walk around downtown (bit of shopping). Still time to keep the find streak up, so 1 virtual, 1 earthcache, 1 traditional (fill in a D/T line) and a TB hotel en route to the airport.

This one had been on our hitlist since arriving in Denver 10 days ago. Needed to complete a line on the D/T grid. Dave went tree spotting, Diz went straight to the cache!

TFTC ?

Found it without finding Annie. Interested in knowing that location

I've had my eye on this cache for years. Seriously! Such a unique DT and puzzle idea. I've just never been in the area with time to search though. But today was the day! I had dropped my son off at school and had a few minutes before I had to start work. This was definitely on my target list.

Given the past logs, I didn't bother searching for Annie. But once I was in the little park, I had a pretty good idea of where the cache might be. I struck out on the first two beacons but hit it on the third! And in retrospect, I should've started there first. All is good here and the log is surprisingly dry.

Glad to finally get this on the found list!

Thanks for the hide TeamCOSpinks. I appreciate you keeping this cache active for everyone to enjoy.

Find number 2160

What kind of morons go geocaching in the Rocky Mountains the day after a big snowstorm? Well I guess the answer is FeartheFish and me. Off to Evergreen and Idaho Springs for some targeted caches and then stops along I-70 on the way back to the metro area and a detour off C-470 so that FeartheFish could get his daily puzzle cache. I needed this one to fill a 2X Fizzy square. Easy find even though I didn't see Annie. TFTC!

Just as the prior geocachers indicated, I was able to make the find without discovering Annie. There was tons of snow on the ground, and I was still able to locate the cache - a big plus! Thanks for the fun, and best wishes for a great year of geocaching in 2019!

Not sure what the animal was, but found the cache in a few minutes. My son and I also found a Nerf dart. Bonus! Thanks for helping with my Fizzy.

Came looking for this to fill a fizzy spot. No clue what was supposed to be looking at what but it was an easy find.

Thanks for the cache placement!
