How cool! It's interesting finding out who all has
ties to various regions up there. On another forum, a friend of mine told
me his family has several acres in Eureka that the parents are going to retire
to in a few years.
The plan is certainly to expand Geocaching on a grand
scale there. Since it hasn't really been addressed yet, I've already
decided to take up the torch with the city officials and will start to pursue a
positive Geocaching relationship with the parks people, and hopefully lead to
Geocaching-friendly policies. I haven't even left Arizona yet, and I
already have plans for a 6-stage multi that will result in 6 individual finds,
and another 10 or so around town. The center of the state will also be
repeated there, and I've already mapped it out.
I will certainly check out the brewery. There is a
very well established group in Missoula (MOOG), and I want to attend one of
their events sometime in the near future. Skydiver is also from that
country, and I'd really like the chance to meet him. Unfortunately, I
won't be able to make it to his campout this summer (Human Geocache
3D-GCHZ6N). Jeep upgrades will happen within the first week of being
there, and I'll be about a month late. On the upside, I'll be in town in
time for the hill climb, an international event and the largest in existence (http://www.blgsmotoclub.org/gahposter.htm).
I flew out 2 days before it last summer, and knew nothing about it at the time I
made flight reservations.

Brian.........Good luck to you and your family on your move to Billings,
Montana. It's always a big decision to make a move like that, and start a new
chapter in one's life. I understand your feelings about moving back to the
mountains, as I used to live in the Bitterroot Valley (Hamilton) in
Southwestern Montana, and still have family there. Being as I work
outside most of the time, I found the weather in Az. pretty inviting as I got
older. If you put as much time and effort into the geocaching community
in Red Rock Country, as you have in Az. , I can see Billings being the hotbed
of geocaching in Montana. BTW, if you get over to Missoula, stop at Big Sky
Brewing and check out some of their brews. Take care, and have a smooth
transition..........................Flatiron & Mrs.
