+blonds run amuck Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 Somone from out of town posted a note on The Forbidden Forrest. Figured it would get it a litte more attention if I posted it here. I noticed that a lot of folks are watching this cache, so I decided to post an invitation. A friend and I will be trying for this cache on Monday, December 12, in the evening (time not set yet). Drop me an email if you are interested in joining us. FYI - My friend has completed this cache before, I have not. Any other takers on this one?? Sir Robbin says about 6pm or there abouts....Car pool from East county.....I'll drive....

I would love to go but I'm meeting SMOKEY today to find his new caches on Gaskill Peak (and maybe place some other ones along the route.) I also have to repair my muggled "Lyons Valley Roadside Distraction." If I could have gone, it would have also given me an opportunity to return your "Fast Track" cache. Take lots of pictures to share the fun . . . I wonder if the spiders are out at this time of the year like they are in the summer . . . ? Quote Link to comment

I have yet to locate the 'official" puzzle book that Trailgators has written about sadism or something like that I was actually FTF for one puzzle cache - so I know I can actually do it. The cringing comes when I contemplate whether I have a few hours to spend puzzling over ONE CACHE! Not usually! But then when I went to one of the caches in "Puzzle Canyon" and had it list all the nearby caches, well, that made me cringe. P.S. You have to solve TG's Who Are You? cache to get the coords to the humongous ammo can with his books in it. P.P.S. to TG: See, I told you I could send some finders to your cache - now will you send me the Teacher's Edition? Quote Link to comment
