I got a chance to check on my caches and because they are not in trees, they are all safe, even though the logging operation continues.

Wings and Tales alerted me of the following - There is a massive logging/tree thinning operation going on in the area. There hasn't been too much cutting here yet but many trees are marked. I will get this one activated when the work is done. Sorry for the inconvenience.

So when I was down with FeartheFish at Summit III, we weren't smart enough to go sign Summit I and II at the same time. Guess there will be another trip! Here is my qualification:

Congratulations! You qualify for this challenge cache!

I have linked this cache to my public bookmark list SUMMIT CHALLENGE; it shows that I have found 72 qualifying caches, far more than I need for this challenge. This is a very good challenge, involving an interesting hike and some good bookmarking work; FDF favorite point and TFTC!

Another one that is tough to get to but easy to find. I have the necessary finds, but will have to wait until reach home to produce a proper bookmark list. Very good challenge and TFTC in advance!

Caching in the Colorado Rockies and visiting my caching friend Hives in Colorado Springs.
Today's goal is to head toward Woodland Park and after logging the oldest in the state, find a number of challenge caches.

Amazing the difference at 9000 ft vs 14,000ft.

Khoda has used Project-GC to see if they qualified for this challenge and they did.

Smile Many thanks to kenyansherpa for placing this cache. Smile
