Watch for Elk Crossing!
Heading South with a group at dusk, we saw some large animals around the road. So we stopped. Some of them had some big atlers - Elk! Cool! As we watched, they milled around on one side - and the one on the West side worked his way down, then across the road. It was pretty dark, so our pictures didn't come out well, but still a nice adventure.

Also, I think it is nice to add another cache along the way when you have a chance! I wish more would take the chance when they are out on the plains!

The OH GeoBugs are in town! That means it's caching time! Out on a lovely morning to run up some numbers before heading to work. TFTC

Caching with ColoradoGeodemon this morning. Great views of the mountains and a couple of red tailed hawks soaring thru the air. What a great area to look for caches. Not much muggle traffic either. Found all we looked for except 2. Most were in great shape but some had wet logs or cracked containers.

Found, signed and returned where found. Thanks for the fun and the cache.

No elk today but we did see 3 white tail deer about 400’ away.

Normally I don’t like power trails but I signed a challenge earlier this year that is going to require a big final push towards the end of the year. So here I am chipping away at that challenge and finding your cache(s). Signed log “PMC” to save space on the log. All is well here with the cache.

Found GC1ZRCV - Elk View, on October 13, 2017 using Cachly for iOS.

Some may call me seriously mentally ill. Some may state that I am in a state of mind that prevents social interaction. Some may say I am in a state of mind that prevents normal perception and or behavior. I prefer to say that I tend to do the same thing over and over again, but I expect different results. That being said, I believe we only live one life and I am trying to make the best of it. I thank you, WitzAbout for placing a fun geocache to fuel my "insanity" or addiction as I call it. I appreciate you bringing me here so that I can sign my alias on a piece of paper that you have hidden.

I look forward to finding more of your geocaches. I also look forward to potentially finding geocaches with you one day and sharing stories of our insanity... I mean hobby or addiction? Cheers!
