Thanks Michael and Jim for chiming in....it's amazing
what common sense and following the geocaching
website's guidelines can do for the hobby...or vice
versa! :-).
I remember one of the first caches I found was Agave
Gardens on Mingus....all scattered everywhere (which
wasn't hard due to the container and location) but it
was the nibbled wrapper on the granola bar that clued
me in to ANIMALS attacking caches with food in
them.....duh!
peace,
