Hi y'all,

Well, another note on the Miller Creek cache up here in Prescott. I found it
today, and the finding is great...a very nice hike in (just under a mile) in
beautiful country. I put a couple extra small things in the cache and I
think if the next few who visit it do the same, then it can be built up to
be more of a "treasure" to find. See the cache page for more.
PS...I DID take the trail book out....but it does have a Jeep Posse button
in it...hmm..who was lookin' for one? Creepin' Jeepers?

GO DBACKS!!
