The CCLP did invade the Southwest!! The entire crew set off for a 16 day/5000+ mile odyssey through 10 states that was entirely planned from cache to cache! Over 450 prime offerings were targeted, with one day alone having over 8200 favorite points!! When the smoke had cleared and the car aired out, we had gone 285/296, snagged over 50 TBs and geocoins(the Riches of the Southwest), found 3 path tags and earned one more, sprinkled a couple dozen limited edition, totally awesome and extremely rare CCLP path tags for the finders along our outrageous route, and finished our fizzy grid for the first time!!
Highlights:
-10 National Parks( Hot Springs, Carlsbad, Saguaro East and West, Grand Canyon North Rim, Zion, Bryce, Capitol Reef, Canyonlands, and Arches)/ and 7 National Monuments( White Sands, Montezuma's Castle, Sunset Crater, Wupatki, Navajo, Horseshoe Bend, and Cedar Breaks)/ and spending the 4th of July on 2 Indian reservations, Hopi and Navajo. They don't celebrate it like we do!
-Several incredible hikes to or through unbelievable places: The Narrows at Zion, Corona Arch trail in Moab, Little Horse slot canyon trail near Goblin Valley state park, Delicate Arch trail at Arches, North Mill Creek swimming hole in Moab, and the Grand Vista in Canyonlands.
-Wildlife: mocking crows and humongous ravens/ a coyote in silhouette dragging a roadkill off an early morning NM road/ big old jackrabbits/ road runners/ two different hawks nail rodents and fly away/ a plethora of lizards/ so many bugs unique to us, highlighted by the neon gold beetle we saw in Boulder/ deer/ prairie dogs/ antelope/ and four Bighorn sheep that gave us a show at Zion as we left the park to the East.
-Food: FatBottom Girls Cupcakes in Hot Springs/Mesquite Steaks at The Cowboy Smokehouse Grill in Panguitch, UT/Capitol Burger food truck in Torrey, Utah/ Sweet Cow ice cream, The Buff, and the Diner Drive-in and Dive famous The Sink in Boulder, CO./ and way too many burgers and otherwise mundane meals.
-Entertainment: Kartchner Caverns/ a spectacular full double rainbow near Carlsbad, NM/ the incredibly fun melodrama at the Gaslight Theatre, Funny Foot farm petting zoo, and the Spanish mission at San Xavier del Bec in Tucson, AZ/ Buckstaff Bathhouse spa treatment in Hot Springs, AR/ Pistachioland in Alamogordo,NM/ the Big stuff in Casey, IL/ Old Mesilla City in NM/ the terribly awesome birding and caching spectacle of Papago Park in Phoenix, AZ/ sunrise at Coal Canyon near Tuba City, NM/ Mexican Hat, the exciting dirt road through Valley of the Gods and the entrenched meandering river in Goosenecks State Park, UT/ sleeping in a Navajo Hogan in Monument Valley/ camping on the North Rim of the Grand Canyon and the memorable Cape Royal road and hot dog picnic we enjoyed there/ Red Cliffs road from Moab to I-70 and the incredibly cool Rock House cache/ NCAR museum tour, the Pearl Street mall and celestial Seasonings factory tour with Mint room in Boulder, CO with dear Uncle Spruce.
We return enriched and refreshed in that very special way that only travel, adventure and long durations of shared time can provide; eager to distribute the Riches of the Southwest to the cachers of the southern Ohio-Indiana borderlands and begin preparing for the CCLP Leaf-A-Lympics event cache this Fall!
Awkward grab.
