West... 112... 28, yup, that's it. Tell them wehave water but we're stuck. Love you! - um, yes, we DID find thecache...". As my cell faded, I added, "and the JEEP TB," holding it upas I returned down towards my hopelessly stuck Toyota and mygeocaching partner, Ron, who was anxious for good news."You reach anyone?""Yes, don't worry. My wife will send help."Getting dark, I peered up the boulder-s! trewn, deeply rutted "road"that we had somehow tumbled down. I had heard that this mountainousbackcountry south of Prescott, Arizona, was rugged. It IS! What Ithought was a short cut to that cache....oh well! The Yellow Jeep TBwas worth the effort!At sunrise, I heard the drone of an airplane. We waved as he madeseveral passes, confirming our GPS coordinates. Now we felt assuredthe ground searchers would locate us....yeah, over that road? Imused....why not send a chopper?Soon I heard vehicles chewing up the rocks and ruts. Four-wheel driveheaded our way! I secretly hoped that they'd get stuck, too, then Iwouldn't feel like such an idiot! However, we were quickly greeted byfour Sheriff's search and rescue volunteers in two vehicles, and Icould see two additional Jeeps up the hill."Wow, are we glad to see you!" Ron cried out."We hear that alot. Glad you are OK. Grab your personal gear and loadup. You can wo! rry about your Four-Runner later."We each climbed into the back of a JEEP - an older, rugged CJ-7 and anewer, fully-equipped Wrangler - for the ride out."I was worried you guys couldn't get to us," I shouted forward.My rescuer smiled back, "That's why we're called the JEEP Posse!"____________________________________________________________Az-Geocaching mailing list listserv@azgeocaching.comTo edit your setting, subscribe or unsubscribe visit:http://listserv.azgeocaching.com/mailman/listinfo/az-geocachingArizona's Geocaching Resourcehttp://www.azgeocaching.com Tsegi Mike and Desert Viking   Till a voice, as bad as Conscience, rang interminable changes  On one everlasting Whisper day and night repeated -- so:"Something hidden.  Go and find it.
