I love the logic behind placing this and the rest of the series for this cache!

This one took me a little while. GPSr had me off the side in the sand, but I finally gave up on that and used GeoSense as I wondered about the prominent point. Finally found about 25' South of my GZ, which isn't bad, but I am accustomed to a tighter circle. Lots of area around here. Cache still in good shape. Always encouraging to be successful this far out.

Beautiful view from here. Looked at this one a couple times before I realized it was the cache location. SL
