Hints Silly it isn't on the rock, it is under the rock. Comments My 1st attempt. PLANNING
I set out with the goal of finding 4 caches, three in the west side of the coulee and the fourth on the university campus.
OUTCOME
This was my fourth cache of the afternoon.This was back on top of the coulee and on the university grounds. On the walk back I saw some Bohemian Waxwings, a helicopter, and a porcupine.
Bohemian Waxwings Helicopter Porcupine wild flowers cache in the open! contentsI found all four caches, a new record for me for one day. These coulee trips are a real work-out. But what better way to spend a few hours! Today the thrill was the porcupine. It was only about 10 meters away and at eye level with myself. A couple of days ago it was two new birds (a Snow Bunting and a Western Tanager). After all of the searching, finding a cache just sitting in the open was a bit of a startle. It was supposed to be hidden under a rock but the construction people must have noticed it and placed it back on the surface after they were done with their work. Still, a cache is a cache, even if it isn't cached.
My total now is 14.
