Waterproof match holder hidden just off the Homestead Trail.
Originally tried to hide a PB jar here, but turned out that anything other than a 'micro' cache is prohibited on the Homestead trail... so we're making due with this waterproof match holder. May have room for a small coin and tiny trinkets but that's it.

Make the cache fun by not making this a Park-n-grab, but instead hike the trail down from Rudy's Park.

Area has lots of cacti and yucca plants so watch your step and maybe leave the kiddos on the trail while you travel the last 75 feet.

Please access this cache from the Homestead trail and not from the nearby town-homes. While this is not on their land, I don't think they'd appreciate a plethora of cachers parking in front of their homes.

Congrats to Hartsdale for FTF.

In the neighborhood to grab the nearby multi. And get out for a nice walk ahead of the snow. Squeezed a travel bug in there. TFTC!

Chilly start to a caching string before I broke my phone screen. Remembered general area and went blind through the cacti for the smiley.

It was such a beautiful day for December 1st, I just had to get out for some geocaching. The container was half full of water. I dumped it out and put it a new piece of paper for a log. I left the old log under the container but you can't read many of the logs. Thanks to dmbfan73 for placing this cache!
