I went out that day and found his first hide "Prieta View" west of Prescott. The next day, Flash and I went after Camp Wood, placed by Wyle E and one of the few caches nearby back then. We took the LONG HARD 4x4 approach from the east which included quite a day of class 3/4 4x4 and a hike to boot! > > We then put out a few caches in the next couple months. And Lincoln put out a few....And so it goes.... > > I have cached in 3 states, AZ, Nevada and Calif, hidden a whole bunch (39, about half are active now) and we have alot of fond memories of all kinds of finds...traditional rural caches, desert, urban micros, virtuals, and a couple cool events where we got to meet people. > > What a great "family" we have have here in our little geocaching community. It's been fun to get to know and to meet other cachers, aren't we a diverse group! > > And it goes on as more people discover geocaching, which for us "Old Timers" keeps it fresh. Today, on what turned out to be our 299th cache, we met a brand new caching family with 2 small kids, up from Anthem and doing a couple Prescott caches. It was so much fun to chat for a few minutes! > > Thanks to the HIDERS who have made it possible for me to reach this modest milestone....for awhile up here in God's Country, I didn't have too many caches to find except Lincoln's. Now the active cachers have stepped up and put out some fine hides and gave us some local caches to hunt!
