Today @WindAtMyBack and I traveled through evening rush hour traffic to Monument, Colorado, to grab a bunch of caches. This is a great time of year and Monument is a beautiful place to witness the openness of mother nature. I know that phone reception is spotty out here, so we downloaded a list. During our journey we saw one garter snake, several hawks, crows, and a bunch of smaller birds. The weather was moderated with a very light, occasional rain and constant cloud cover. Great weather for caching.
I solved this puzzle a while ago, knowing that I would be caching in this area. I was really surprised that I solved it :) We arrived at the GZ and I was a little concerned that there wasn't enough room to park. But the street isn't that busy, so it wasn't a problem. I checked several beacons without luck before I moved a little further east and found the container. TFTC!

There were no mosquitoes, yet. After finding the one signed by OR85OR450 and gampa&gamma, I didn't really look to see if a second one is still there. Thanks for the puzzle and the hide, Tom.dog.

I had a cache errand to run just a ways from here... decided to stop by for this one since I’d seen some logs that indicate a throw-down replacement had been left. In reasonably short order I found the “original” 2012 replacement made by the CO.., and the 2016 pod dropped by whom ever. Odd thing is they were within the width of my hand away from one another!!
Oh, and between the two there are about four “found it” logs online with no geonic on paper :-(
Signed right below Gamma & Gampa from June three years ago.

Happened to catch a glimpse of a non-camo'd edge. Nice to take this off my to do list before we head back to the airport. Tftc

On this cool and crisp Easter Sunday, April Fools Day, I decided to do a bit of caching. A big thank you to all the COs who placed all these lovely caches for me to find.

Hooray, my 3rd puzzle of the day!

Had a bunch of solved puzzles in the area and went to grab them today at lunch. No luck at GZ, and I looked for the replacement container where the last log indicated it should be... Still empty-handed... I'll come back another day and look again!

Thanks for the fun puzzle cache! Caching in the area today. Left a replacement camoed test strip container at the base of the multi-tree.

Like previous finders, I couldnt come up with it. Might need a check.

Solved this a while ago and took a walk to find it on this gorgeous 65 degree day. But came up empty. Took a few pictures of the area. Didn't get wet but got my shoes muddy! I see that there were a few DNF. I wonder if it's missing. I love this street. Had a nice walk.
