+xy,xx,xy,xy,xy,xy Posted March 22, 2006 Posted March 22, 2006 (edited) I have 2 hides for March. I made D-Born's cache in the Swakane a 3fer. Lincoln Rock is on the bottom of the hill and Bedrock is about halfway to the Glitters. I get a day off and good weather and I get and itchin' to go cachin'. Blue J For the record, there are actually 6 caches up Swakane Canyon. I just hid a new one down in MalagaA Different Valley View I'm starting this as a new thread as the originator of the old one decided to move it off of the Groundspeak site.

+g-people Posted March 22, 2006 Posted March 22, 2006 Really? What are the other caches up the canyon? We (in our pre-100 days) had tried to go after one but car sickness took over and we turned back. We thought we were taking the wrong route or the "long way around" which is actually our alias Quote

We (in our pre-100 days) had tried to go after one but car sickness took over and we turned back. We thought we were taking the wrong route or the "long way around" which is actually our alias THe Dragon's lair is about 1/4 mile past all that glitters, Roughing it is about a mile or so past that and dadgum! is at the top of the canyon. that one may be closer to get from the Nahahum side, but there is a big mud hole to navigate just uphill from the cache, so unless you have a 4x4 with good tires, it is best grabbed driving up Swakane. I was along for the hide on that one but didn't log it at the time because I neglected to sign the log. Quote

+Blue J Wenatchee Posted March 22, 2006 Posted March 22, 2006 (edited) I stand corrected. I hadnt done the three up above Glitters. I guess now I know what I have to do on one of my days off and make the trip all the way over the top. Thanks. That gives me a list to do in the near future.

+Barnabirdy(s) Posted March 27, 2006 Posted March 27, 2006 All right, pronounciation experts, the Birdy(s) wonder how to pronounce "Swakane"? We doubt that our Hawaiian version is correct. Couldn't make Nav's site do it for us. Barnabirdy(s) Quote

+Map Only Posted April 2, 2006 Posted April 2, 2006 I made time for my not-nearly-once-a-monther: "I see George, Washington". Enjoyed a little free time and great company on the sunny side. Quote
+Mr. Gadget #2 Posted April 7, 2006 Posted April 7, 2006 I made time for my not-nearly-once-a-monther: "I see George, Washington". Enjoyed a little free time and great company on the sunny side. This is a nice cache hunt to do. I did it a week ago and I would recommend that you go in from Wahatis Peak. You will walk along the crest of Saddle Mountain for a good share of the distance and see both the Columbia River/Wahluke Slope and the Crab Creek Royal Slope area at the same time. There are several places you will walk by and see where Petrified Wood digs had taken place. I found a small piece of Petrified Wood that you can see see the wood grain very well. Quote

When I was over near the Potholes last month I was asking the Game Warden how Upper Ca-Liche, was doing. He was new, so he said....."oh that's how you pronounce it".....LOL....guess I was wrong.

+g-people Posted April 18, 2006 Posted April 18, 2006 well this was about to slide to the next page so back to the top! g-people hid a new one this week Wonder if this is a puzzle that can finally stump some of our local puzzle masters! Quote

I looked at it briefly, but it made no immediate sense to me. Quote
+Ambrosia Posted April 18, 2006 Posted April 18, 2006 That sums up about every single puzzle cache for me! Except that the majority of them never make sense to me, no matter how long I look at them. :D Quote
+The Navigatorz Posted April 18, 2006 Posted April 18, 2006 This one is a tough one. I solved it but not without a little hint from the onwer. If anyone solves it without any help, then my hat is off to you. Quote
+The Navigatorz Posted April 27, 2006 Posted April 27, 2006 Set out my hide for April this evening and submitted it for approval. I named it a word I heard for the first time today, and I'd tell you what it is, but I forgot already. Quote
+The Navigatorz Posted April 30, 2006 Posted April 30, 2006 Hid another one yesterday on Badger Mountain. Quote
+Blue J Wenatchee Posted May 3, 2006 Posted May 3, 2006 I had to up to Blewett Pass yesterday so while I was there i hid my cache for May. It is called BLEWETT and it is from the ghost town series. Enjoy the area and ask me for a good story on hiking up to the top of the trail that leads just south of the cache area. Quote

+g-people Posted May 13, 2006 Posted May 13, 2006 So is this club still active? I'm beginning to wonder. I am working on a May hide Quote
+xy,xx,xy,xy,xy,xy Posted May 13, 2006 Author Posted May 13, 2006 So is this club still active? I'm beginning to wonder. Hid my May hide on Thursday. Set up the cache page last night and it is in the approval queue even as we speak. South side of Blewett Pass. Quote
+g-people Posted May 29, 2006 Posted May 29, 2006 Okay we made up for our lateness this month by hiding two.....enjoy. Now I could use a local one or two to do Quote
+g-people Posted June 4, 2006 Posted June 4, 2006 Thanks for the new caches this week folks! I hid a new one today for June! Quote
+Barnabirdy(s) Posted June 7, 2006 Posted June 7, 2006 We have lost count of what month it is, but two new ones are out there from the Birdy(s). It is hard for us to hide caches if there are too many to look for . K&A Quote

+Barnabirdy(s) Posted June 10, 2006 Posted June 10, 2006 Still struggling to get our second hide approved. This waypoint thing is a royal pain. We may just give up on puzzles or multis K&A Quote
+The Navigatorz Posted June 10, 2006 Posted June 10, 2006 Just hid 2 new caches today. One's called "Rooster Comb" and the other called "Navigatorz Milestone Hide". Strap up your bootlaces for a 1.3 mile hike with a 900 ft elevation gain. Spectacular views. Quote
+Mr. Gadget #2 Posted June 11, 2006 Posted June 11, 2006 Just hid 2 new caches today. One's called "Rooster Comb" and the other called "Navigatorz Milestone Hide". Strap up your bootlaces for a 1.3 mile hike with a 900 ft elevation gain. Spectacular views. Oh my when do we go after these. Should we go for a FTF or wait. I can see another Cache infestation here as on Saddle Rock.. Guaranteed somebody will be making more than one hike up there. My $$$ bets on The Nav!! Quote
+The Navigatorz Posted June 11, 2006 Posted June 11, 2006 I don't doubt there will be more caches up there eventually. The road keeps going up to more great views. So will someone bring a cache along with them when they find mine? My $$$ is on Mr. G. Quote
+Mr. Gadget #2 Posted June 15, 2006 Posted June 15, 2006 I know where there are two more caches hid on the Rooster Comb side. Yes one of them is mine. If anyone is thinking about placing a cache up there, I sugest you contac The Navigatorz and get the skinny of some of the hoops he had to go through with the volunteer reviewers before his caches were approved. Thanks Nav for what you have done. -G- Quote
+Barnabirdy(s) Posted June 16, 2006 Posted June 16, 2006 (edited) We think the Birdy(s) will wait until the dust settles on Rooster Comb. We were too busy on our one day in town Wednesday to get to any caches. It has been a long time since that happened BTW we pulled Cache of Least Resistance so there is an opening along the Wenatchee side of the Loop Trail. ccmin was interested once she is mobile again K&A Barnabirdy(s) Edited June 16, 2006 by Barnabirdy(s) Quote
+g-people Posted June 16, 2006 Posted June 16, 2006 I know where there are two more caches hid on the Rooster Comb side. Yes one of them is mine. Huh, I wonder who hid the other one Rumor has it that it has been submitted for approval...... Quote
+The Navigatorz Posted June 18, 2006 Posted June 18, 2006 We think the Birdy(s) will wait until the dust settles on Rooster Comb. The dust has settled. Quote

+The Navigatorz Posted June 21, 2006 Posted June 21, 2006 We think the Birdy(s) will wait until the dust settles on Rooster Comb. The dust has settled. What I meant was if anyone is waiting for the other caches hidden there to get approved, it's not going to happen. The approver doesn't want that area to get saturated with caches, much like it is on the west side. That ought to feather some ruffles. Quote
+g-people Posted June 21, 2006 Posted June 21, 2006 I finally did all the Saddlerock caches the other night and hiked past the highest one and hid another just to so everyone can go back up there and enjoy the views....again, and again, and again. Just kidding of course! Quote
+The Navigatorz Posted July 1, 2006 Posted July 1, 2006 Retrieved and archived the following 8 caches: Simply Marbelous, Turtle Rock, Trivial Cache Pursuit, Apple Capital Recreation Loop Trail, Panorama, Hidden Coordinates, Happy 2006!!!, Simple Arithmetic. More to follow. Quote
