Being a military veteran, though I knew that the harrier was a bird, my first thought when I saw the cache's name was of a V/TOL aircraft! Found quickly this afternoon. SL. TFTC.

After reading COs note and finding tree surrounded by water, we replaced container and log and covered it with a stick. It’s so windy here, I hope it doesn’t blow away. Thanks for the smiley!!

I teamed up with BlindReff and Night-Hawk on what has become
a regular trip to GeoWoodstock for us each year.

We used a stamp imprinted with We Nailed It to sign most of the logs,
but at times I used my personal stamp to include my geocache name on
some of the log sheets.

Thanks to imusttravel2000 for hiding and maintaining this geocache.

Find #18940
Time 9:54:30 AM

Team "We Nailed It" which consist of Night-Hawk, CacheUMan and myself flew out to attend the GeoWoodstock 14er - 2016 (https://coord.info/GC5Q1ET) mega event. We arrived several days early to enjoy the cache rich environment and the variety of caches that are here for us to find and enjoy. A caching trip over to MIngo allowed some of our team members to find this special cache and to pick up another state. While out here on the plains we also discovered that it can rain very hard and make these dirt roads go away very fast, the result is a cache mobile stuck in the mud in the middle of nowhere without cell coverage...lots of fun now!
I truly can say that I enjoyed all of the caches and the scenery that came with them as we don't have the open space like this back home.

This was find #9 for a total of 97 with 5 DNFs for the day.

Thanks "imusttravel2000" for hiding this cache for me to enjoy,
