Geez, the traffic in the metropolis of Orange City was horrendous at 5am so had to go home and sleep for a few days before trying this one again. Cache was hard to find as someone was sleeping on the spot of the cache. It turned out to be John Tesh who had heard that he had a fan who had actually copied his cd's. Was distraught and disappointed that it wasn't me, but after telling him I'd seen he's mural painted above hiddenrock's fireplace and giving him hiddenrocks' address and phone number he calmed down a bit. Was hard to open the cache container, but with my pocket acetylene torch I finally managed. Left some backstage passes to the sold out Yanni concert, took a coveted used tissue.
Thanks for the cache monkeez, don't believe we've found one of yours since attempting to climb the phone tower at your "Can You Hear Me Now" cache.

Knowing the restrictions on active railroad tracks, I was not about to trespass. I called 911 about a suspicious container and their bomb squad blew up the cache. I caught the logbook as it flew by and signed in. I also took a boxcutter across the jugular and am feeling a bit faint... argh, THUNK!

Well Cachemonkeez (aka Hammack, aka Team Hammack, aka Sers)... Caught the red eye from California last night. Got in this morning and the first thing I did was to rent a car and drive to this cache. What a mess. The NTSB guys had spotted the ammo box and called out the bomb squad. They were getting ready to detonate what was left of the container. I tried to stop them but was unable to. 'All I want to do is sign the log first'. 'Please'. boooom. Oh well maybe CacheMonkeez will allow me to log this as a find anyway. I raced back to the airport and caught the return plane home. I'll call Jackie later and tell her I was in town. If she doesn't believe me I'll tell her to read the log. Thanks for the fun. If you don't think I earned this then feel free to delete my log, or maybe you can have Crow T change it to a note, or maybe you can tell me to change it to a note. Gee is this cache hidden near hiddenrock's front yard?

Went out to perform some maintenance on the cache (that's my favorite part of geocaching!). Moved the wreckage out of the way and restored the cache. Should be good to go.
I didn't see GreyMouser and J&B's names in the log so they should go back and sign or delete their logs.

I woke up early this morning to the sound of my alarm clock beeping. I tried to turn it off, only it wouldn't stop. Suddenly I realized I was not in my bed. I was laying on the railroad tracks. I had dozed off while looking for this cache and now there was a huge train bearing down on me. I jumped out of the way then spotted the cache just before the train passed. I quickly reached back onto the tracks and grabbed the cache. Unfortunately, the wind of the passing train blew all the WheresGeorge money all over the place. There must have been a few dozen dollar bills in there. Anyway, thanks for the cache.

I think you need to change the difficulty rating - the crater gives away the position a little much for a five. Terrain however, is still treacherous. Signed remains of log - left signature assault riffle. Thanks for the fun.

As I am known far and wide as a "cacher of mercy," I arrived on the scene (after stopping by the hospital to visit WaldenRun) with a new container stocked with a CL Instant Cache Kit, READ Stickers, handstamped bookmarks, and CL Magnets. There is also a first aid kit in there. I couldn't find any gerbils....
But, wouldn't you know, by the time I got there, a new box had been placed! Glad to see that SOME people maintain their caches. I hid this one down the tracks a bit and wrote the coords on the lid of the original cache - so now you have a multi!

Hey...there's noting or no one here... I'm standing here at the coordinates right now; I have a mobile internet connection. Are these like the real coordinates? I mean, man, it cost helluva lot dough to come here from Finland, just for this cache.
Anyone? Anyone?

Worst. Cache. Ever.
This turned into our most expensive cache hunt ever. We narrowly avoided escape due to our poor choice of parking (Please see picture). Once the EMS left, we found the cache with ease though. I was disappointed their were no gerbils left. Anyhoo, we took nothing, but left a rattlesnake. I'm sure it will have suffocated by the time the next cachers get to it.

OK CacheMonkeez.. I fessed up to Jackie and told her I flew to Florida just to find your cache and then flew home without stopping to see her. She was p..o..d to say the least. However when I explained that you wanted to delete our log because I couldn't sign the log, she graciously went to the new and updated cache and signed the log. While she was there she took this picture.

I had decided to spend a little time out of town after placing [URL=
http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=0001d69c-7367-4516-8a94-ff76b2c2867f]this cache[/URL], when I ran into some of Blueman's military buddies. They were giving me a ride in their nifty black helichopper when we were diverted to this site. They're certainly dedicated cachers; they had tons of cool equipment and even matching uniforms. I think their screen name is "Special Forces." Anywho, while they swarmed the area, they asked me to lie face down in the dirt with my hands cuffed behind my back. It seemed a little weird, but I know there are regional differences in the way people cache, so I didn't want to be rude. Funny thing though, I just so happened to be lying right on top of the log book, so with the blood from my cracked nose, I smeared my initials. Thanks for the fun cache. Now I think we're off to a Geo-Event at PAFB!

After I saw that the "cool librarians" had converted this cache into a multi, I decided to give it another shot. By this time, there were emergency vehicles everywhere making it even more difficult to access the cache. Unfortunately, not too many trade items remain...so anyone who intends to venture out to the cache should plan on re-stocking it. Give yourself an extra 3 hours due to the traffic congestion caused by the train wreck and all the overturned vehicles.
Hey CacheMonkeez thanks for another super caching adventure.

I stopped by on my way to work to snag this one. I don't think barbed wire necessarily make it a 5 for terrain. I suppose if you count the wire cutters I happened to have with me, that would be "special equipment".
The kids enjoyed tagging along. They said it is much more fun than daycare. My youngest was small enough to retrieve the cache while the train went by just inches above his head. I'll start packing helmets in my backpack for your next cache.
Took the 44" Super Swampers, they'll look great on my Suburban once I get it raised a few more inches. Left a squished penny and a hampster (sorry Lep, I just can't keep him. Hope you don't mind)

Not sure whether I should keep this as a find or not. Managed to find the cache with three of my friends, cause we heard there was a dead body in the vicinity. Unfortunately my friend Vern dropped his comb, as I didn't notice the train barrelling my way. I managed to avoid the train (see attached pic by my friend Chris) but dropped the cache over the edge. Hope another cacher finds it.

I saw this one pop up on my cachescope and decided to hop in my new H2 and and head from Southern Illinois (I would never have gone if I were from Chicago because it just would have been too far to drive). Anyway, there's not much left of the cache or anything else for that matter. I decided to replace the cache so I pulled a 55 gallon drum (formally used to store high octane racing fuel. Sorry about the smell, I didn't get a chance to clean it first)from my backpack and covered it with booby-traps to keep out the muggles. The cache is now restocked with BRAND NEW razor blades. Lots of offical looking people around, not sure what they're up to.
Thanks for the adventure.
Took: Big toe that I found on the ground to convert in to a keycahin.
Left: Some old, out dated medications that I had laying around. I'm not sure what they're for but they are very colorful.

in the name of all that is humane and the Society for the Protection of Poisonous Snakes, I stopped by to retrieve the rattler and return him to Arizona where we need more snakes. Thankfully he survived quite well on squished gerbils and the cache is now empty of living things. SL; took the snake and left a few weapoons of mass destruction.

Needed to get to the coast for a business trip to Columbia(leaving in the middle of the night), and thought a caching adventure was a good idea. after getting to the site,i realized that this one would take awhile, so took some "performance enhancing stimulants" to get thru this one. I finally found after a all-nighters of caching! All i can say is....watch out for that Dang train...anyone that finds a hand...call or email me in KC.

While digging around for this cache, I needed more gerbils for the snakes in my backyard, I heard a sound in the distance that sounded like the world famous DDA40X (GCAD98) locomotive. As I concentrated on the find, the sound got louder unitl I noticed it was coming right toward me. I jumped as it roard by, clutching the log book. Grabbed a quick photo of the engine while signing the log. Thanks for a great hide.

WOW that train is loud!! I had to dig in several spots and tear up 3 ties and both rails before I found the ammo can, what a great camo job by the way, just in time for the railroad guy on that silly teeter-totter cart to come by and arrest me. Good thing there is Internet access in this jail so I can log the find. I was able to grab some of the bubble gum just before they replaced the ties and rails, and I left a loaded .380 with an extra magazine (hollow point of course!)
Now I have to figure out a way to make bail AND buy an airplane ticket back to AZ, I'm for sure not riding the rails after what I jsut saw (did?) ! :-)

After signing the log, I noticed the little gerbil wandering about. I remembered that I had a spare travel bug tag in my pack, to I pulled it out, attached it to the little feller and tossed him back into the charred and smoking container. I think some maintenance may be in order for this one.

Found cache after hours of searching and digging with a shovel. Cache is in terrible condition. Seems the heat built up in the ammobox and the gerbils are now dead and bloated. Did not have my cache repair kit with me a it is sitting at home in Kansas. Next finder will have some cleaning up of the cache to do. Make sure the next person brings rubber gloves, HAZMAT kit and a new dry log book. Took nothing Left quarter.

While attending a conference today, I saw a demonstration of a virtual surgery application. After explaining geocaching to the operator, he agreed to allow me to handle the controls. Manuvering the bot into position was the most difficult aspect, but once we got into place it was a cinch using the multiple tools this baby has on its 4 hands to get into the cache and sign the log. Took nothing, may have dropped a dirty needle from hand #2. um... just take some Cipro if you comen into contact with the needle and avoid direct sunlight for 17 hours. If you have any complications... um... oh... nevermind.
