Enjoy a secluded section of Mt. Falcon Open Space Park far away from the crowds. So far I've seen a wild turkey, lizzard and rattlesnake en route to this cache. Cache is 1.3 miles from upper lot as the crow flies. Make sure you have solid hiking boots and a lot of water.

Little Booger is named in honor of our adopted son, Kyle. Over the course of many years, Mtn-Tx-Agg88 (my husband) and I hiked the trails of Mt. Falcon planning for and waiting for the adoption to come through.

The cache is located near a spot we visited frequently to sit quietly and gaze over the mountains when the waiting grew unbearable.

It took five years for us to receive The Call from the adoption agency.

Two weeks after Booger was born, we took him on his first "hike" at Mt. Falcon. John (Mtn-Agg) carried him in a Snuggli on the Parmalee Gulch Trail.

Now, at the age of three, Booger trekked along with us to make this plant. He loves geocaching - especially when there are cars, plastic bugs and dinosaurs to find.

Since this cache is in a rather secluded, low traffic area, use caution and common sense while traipsing off trail. Take a different way out than when you went in. Avoid creating visible "cache trails".

Cache is quite small but not micro. There's a log and a FTF towlette of AVON Bug Guard which will come in handy for summer geocaching. Only very tiny objects will fit for swag.
Watch out for snakes!

Great day for a walk in the park and the breeze kept it from being too hot. TFTC

I found this cash when we traveled down from on Casper. It was named after me because of my adoption in 2006 when I was born. I like this cash. Good luck!

His this cache 9 years ago in honor of adopting my son. We have since moved out of state, so it’s been years since I have been here. My husband is in town for work and my son wanted to find the cache hidden in his honor. He is 12 years old now. A trail man in Trail life Troop 1613. He’s a new recruit in the 11th Ohio Volunteer Cavalry based out of Casper, WY. Here is Little Booger himself!

Stop #2 on the "Ute Loop." Hope the "Little Booger" is enjoying the sport of geocaching, now that he is little older. Pretty spot. Thanks for bringing me here!
