[Az-Geocaching] Cache Placing Philosophy

[listserv@azgeocaching.com]

Hi,
Not sure how you are counting the "record" for
Labyrinth Canyon being the least visited cache, but
don't forget Wyle E's "Camp Wood Cache" that has had
only 2 finds (really ONE...we were together). Even tho'
it has not been out in the field as long, fewer people
have found/attempted, and it is not that hard to get
to!!!
Wish I had a boat, I'd love a trip on Powell!
peace,
~~trisha  ~~ "Lightning"
