How about Hollow Tree? I did that one last winter, and it's a nice, easy snowshoe. We took some first-time showshoers and they didn't have a problem, even with the creek crossing and small hills. The snowshoe caches I know about (including Hollow Tree) are on my Snowshoe Cache bookmark list. I am sure there are more, so I welcome suggestions for additional listings from anyone; this is a public list. Hollow Tree it is! With the recent snow storms and more on the way, it's looking pretty good to go. I'm changing the date I'll be going to Sunday morning, the 30th, so my wife can join. She's not a big hiker and we'll probably lag behind but we will have fun all the same. Well I'm a definite maybe on this one.

Tiger, Squak, and Rattlesnake are the ones that I currently know to be ok. There's also McDonald I guess as a cache was just published there. I appreciate the note about trails being closed as I was unaware and was actually planning to do more of Tiger before the end of the year. There are still lots and lots of trails on Tiger so don't let a couple of closed trails stop you from exploring the mountain. FYI a Green Trails map is a really hand thing to have if you want to do some Tiger Mountain exploring.

Hydnsek had a Snowshoe bookmark list if that is something you're interested in. And if you would like to participate in a group outing TotemLake has his Hike of the Month thread too.

I haven't renamed any of my "missing" coins but I have added "If you are logging this from someones collection it was STOLEN" to the page of some of them.

Way to go Cuz, it's about time.

If I'm not mistaken, and I very well could be, the receiver that you are using to aquire the Sats needs to be licensed to the mapping software you want to display. Your 60CSx is licensed to use your CN but your Venture is not so nRoute it will only display the Base Map.

my bad They looked the same and were constructed the same. I put the dang thing there and it sure looked like the bridge to me. First I'd heard about a road closure further back. But it does remind me that I have some cache page updates to make. Here's a USGS map with both the Wagner Bridge and The Drive in the Woods cache. FYI if you really want to get up there permits to use Hancock Forest Management Group's private road network to get into the public recreation areas beyond the bridge are $200 and are good from Jan. 1 to Dec. 31 so if you buy a permit now it's only good until 12-31-07.

I don't know if this is the same closure or not but: http://www.metrokc.gov/kcdot/roads/cip/Pro...px?CIPID=200604 I hope there wasn't a cache under that bridge! photo snip There was a cache under that bridge A Drive In The Woods #1– Dead End, but it looks like it went missing a while ago. Wrong bridge, the Wagner Bridge is about a mile from the Forgotten Bridge and only 650' NE of Potty Mouth. A Drive In The Woods #1– Dead End is another 2.5 miles past the Wagner Bridge. my bad They looked the same and were constructed the same. I had originally thought it was the bridge of whch you spoke but then looking at the USGS maps Wagner Bridge is labeled as such. No idea why they have the road closed so far from the bridge.

So let me get this straight, YOU screwed up so your husband was in trouble. Logically this makes no sence; but as a husband I get it. If your husband drove home, I assume he drove home in a car, what was your cell phone doing in the parking lot?

Looks like they build their lookout towers to last over there.

Am I the only one that finds it odd that she is in what appears to be a public restroom with her camera??

Are you sure it wasn't an empty flask that contributed to the fall??

There is a small group hoping to make the trip up to Mission 9: Tunnel of Light on October 7th. But the plan is to ride the trail all the way to Rattlesnake Lake, a 21 mile long bike ride. See this thread.

Wow, I might almost make this. What are the cache goals, and do you know the name of that TH area? Looks like the TH for Poo Poo Point. Closest Cache is Paraglider's Secret #2 Micro Style

Not a good weekend for me. I've been gone quite a bit the last few weekends. The following weekend works better because the Wife is going back to Tennessee to see our Son before he ship out to Iraq.

Prying Pandora hit the big 5000 today at Alpine Lookout

Depending on timing I might just be up for this. I have already done the Ape Cache but not the ride to Rattlesnake Lake. Ridin the Iron Horse Ridin the Iron Horse II

Cool, I explored a lot of these caves when I was a kid. I have tried to find coordinates for them on the internet but they appear to be one of those things that those that know where they are want to keep them as hush hush as they can.

It's all the stopping we did on the way up. If you look at your track on the way up there is probably a lot of track wandering at the rest stops. If you edit those out of your track it will probably come in a lot closer to the down hill distance.

Hopefully tou were a lot dryer So, tell us how it went! Did it really rain on you? Bummer! K7-wave and I are headed east this evening to Table Mountain in hopes of clear skies and lots of pretty streamers. Yes it rained, not real hard but enough to get lots of stuff wet and number of people showed up not prepared for the rain. The owrst part of the rain were the clouds that prevented any meteor viewing.

Hopefully tou were a lot dryer

We've got room Marc - you're surely welcome to come along and get lost with us! The geojalopy departs Left Seattle at 7 am. Plenty of parking here to leave your car. Shoot me a private note if you'd like to join us. Or I still have room for two in the Land Rover. Departing Federal Way approx. 0700.

No rides from strangers, but you'll follow them into the woods?????????? I still have room in the Land Rover if you're interested. I'm planning on leaving Federal Way around 0700 and stopping in Ocean Shores to pick up my nephew.
