As I approached GZ I had deja vu... I've been here before! Maybe I DNFd it? Nope, quickly found the cache and yup there's my stamp... Sigh... I wonder how many finds I actually have. I enjoyed this puzzle - I've been to several of the locations and several more are on my bucket list. TFTC! All is (still) well with this cache.

This was a really fun puzzle to solve, and a great site visit. This is what I love about geocaching; it takes you to places you'd never otherwise visit/discover...I never would have known I lived so close to an old historic fort site used in the Indian Wars! Thank you DES for the cache. After you found both of ours, we decided to reciprocate and look for a couple of yours! TFTC!

One of 7 caches found today. Worked out the coordinates in early 2014, but just now got around to finding and logging the cache. The cache is in good shape. Thanks for the puzzle and the cache.
