Decided we needed to go caching today, seems like we haven't been out in ages. Of course we picked a cold windy day but when you caching it's alwasy a good day to be out and about. Thank you for the great puzzles which I knew not much about our Rockies but soon learned more than I thought I would know. Thanks for putting these together I'm sure it took alot of effert. Wasn't able to finish cause it got dark on us. Got a kick out of Edwards654 logs right before mine they were so true to the cache.

BugRanger and I decided yesterday to hit this geo-art today--which led to a mad rush to solve all the puzzles. I like baseball a lot, but have never been to a Rockies game and now I think I should. Anyway, solving involved a lot of google, a lot of guesswork, and way too much Captcha (yes, I DO know what a fire hydrant looks like!), but by this morning we were ready to hit the trails.

We had great luck finding all the caches quickly, and finished up in about 5 hours on a gorgeous late fall day. Along the way we saw some great views, got a bunch of stickers in our socks, watched some waterfowl, and passed so much abandoned furniture that we could have furnished an apartment building...if we didn't mind how it smelled. A fun day for sure!

I don't like cut and paste logs much, but they are a necessity on power trails. I'll add a few notes for a couple of caches, but otherwise, what can I say but thanks for all these caches and the work that went into them!
