Rob,
Your computer's clock is one month behind, and therefore so are all the
timestamps on the Emails you send. :)

I have a ways to go before I've bagged all the higher elevation caches, in
particular, the White Mountain caches. On a recent trip to Reservation Lake,
I was impressed with the relatively high number of caches in the area. Most
of which looked like they required at least a small approach. We only had
time for two caches, this last trip, next time I would like to plan a
caching only trip. If you haven't been to the White Mountain lately, now is
a great time to head up in that area, there is lots of water and it is very
green and cool. BTW, I did take up a new cache container and I did stash it.
It is ripe and ready for a first finder.

I wish there were more caches popping up in the Tucson area. Though, there
are a few teams in Tucson regularly generating quality caches, still it is
no were close to the rate in the Phoenix area.

It's miserably hot, too hot for geocaching. So I thought I'd share
another one of my watch list caches from another state. I think you might
find it amusing. Plus anything with water and greenery I find appealing now,
especially since my plants are all yellow and dying.
I've been recording the new caches that are being posted, and it seems
that new urban caches in the Phoenix area (where it is very hot) are
appearing almost every day. However, there are few new caches appearing in
the Flagstaff area, where the weather is a lot cooler. For example, this
search shows only 63 caches within 25 miles of Flagstaff (compared to more
than 400 for some Phoenix-area zip codes) and no new caches posted within
the last 10 days.
I would like to see more geocaches in the cooler elevations of Arizona,
rather than just in the Phoenix area. How can we promote a greater and more
equitable geographic distribution of caches throughout Arizona? I like
caches close to home, but I also would like to see a greater variety and
distribution of caches throughout the entire state, not just close to the
big metropolitan area.
On my next trip to the Flagstaff area, I intend to bring a new cache
container with me and I will put a new cache somewhere in the high, cool
pine country of northern Arizona.
