I'm not sure what Missouri Breaks your talking about but I can tell about Montana's, located in central Montana. Declared a national Monument by Teddy Roosevelt. Lewis and Clark came through and a very important part to many native American Tribes. The topography is much like the Badlands and there are record Elk for hunting

[general_tupperware]

Missouri, significant because they are outlaws.

Aaah. Confused.

[57chevy]

Ok, I'm sending out a couple of coins on this one seeing as how PA Racers answered first. The Missouri Breaks are in Montana, and are part of the Badlands, They were used in the early 20th century as hideouts for Outlaws. Congrats to all of tonights winners, and a big Thanks to TSun. I Belize I'm gonna hit the hay.

Thanks for the fun Tsun, your petroglyph coins are very special indeed.

Bleh... confused by the movie.

[+TheCollector]

The Missouri Breaks is located in central Montana, U.S

they are significant because the petroglyph are used by the indians that lived there

Hahaha! SU is pretty popular, I only have 1 set and the turtle and bear are from that set but my favorite is Magenta I never took any classes, just kind of taught myself. I had to force myself to quit buying that stuff too, lol. I have an entire room filled with craft supplies, I'm sure you know what I mean. Oh well, keeps me busy when I'm in a creative mood Maybe we should team up and sell geocaching cards.........lol.

[+Red Otter]

I received the Thunderbird Petroglyph in the mail today and all I can say is, "WOW!!" Thanks you so much for the beautiful 'glyph. It's obvious how much time and effort went into making this beauty.

[+Smort78]

The Mountain Goat arrived in my mailbox today. I might be able to leave it in a cache tomorrow if things go as planned. Both the Goat and the Turtle looks looks really great!

Thanks for letting me in on this project

Figured I'd just revive an old thread. Opinions needed please.

 

I'm working on some new sig items to leave in caches and possibly bring some with me to Rocky Mountain Rendevouz. These are 2 'rough' versions of a Jeep Rescue (the new Jeep) sig item. They are 3 inches in diameter, so they are big and I can't make them smaller. I like the "Cache Rescue" saying the best, anyone have ideas for possible sayings? They need to be short, only so much room. The other little sig item is a Hedgehog with a heart that says cache on it. I used it for size comparison (1.75"). These are done in Green and Metallic Copper, there isn't a glossy finish on them yet.

 

Would you like to find this in a cache? Would you keep it, move it to another cache, or leave it? The back will say TFTC. All opinions welcome.

 

I'll give these 3 items away as long as you give some sort of opinion. So, there will be 3 winners.

 

Rules: Give your opinion (required but can be as simple as, looks good, sucks, etc.) and guess a # between 1 and 50. You may guess 1 number at a time and must wait 10 minutes in between guesses. You can only win 1 item.

 

First correct guess, gets first choice, and so on, until the last # is picked. Thanks for the opinions and I'll make sure they look good before I mail them out.

 

 

Tsun.

Just got back from MOGA and while I was there I found a petroglyph Series 2007 in a cache there during the competition. It made my day. It is incredible how much time and effort you put into this item. I will treasure it. It is the eagle.

[57chevy]

I like all three but had to guess at the little porcupine looking critter. The 4wd could look a little more like an XTerra though. My guess for the number would be 30, that was when I stopped counting birthdays.
