Drylanders, named after a band that some members are alive and well and still making music here. I hope you enjoy the cache and beautiful view. Take time if you have it to wander around and check out the area. Do not worry about looking for the cache, we have talked with the land owners, they know and give permission for the cache.

PLANNING
I set up a route last night that would involve a total of 9 searches. I was not sure how many would be possible as three of the searches would involve some hiking, which is often difficult to estimate in terms of time taken. Then there is always the unknown factor of how long it actually takes to spot the cache once one is in the area. And there will also be a fair amount of driving between caches, sometimes on rural gravel roads. It promised to be a full day. But the weather was perfect: sunny, warm, no wind, blue sky.
OUTCOME
3:15 PM This was my 9th, and last, search for the day. I walked around the cache area once and found it as I completed the circle.
Here is my posting to the geocaching.com website:
