Sunset from the cache...

 

Here is one from a few years ago in the middle of winter. Cabin fever had set in so I grabbed the dogs to head out to the open prairie to see about getting some caching in.

Beautiful and quiet all day long and the dogs had a blast running throught the snow.

Heres some pics of a trip we went on earlier this year. 8200+km in 29 days. 335 caches found.

 

What we travelled on, Our travelling TB companion (Freddo) perched on the cache container (ammo box) beside the helmet on the front of the trailer.

Freddo at the Giant Cray. And before you ask, those fuel prices are dollars and cents per litre, not gallon.

That stuff is all over Nebraska. A pretty low grade of "tumbleweed" for the most part.

 

We call it "ditchweed" here -- but this looked pretty good quality (for no maintenance) -- somebody had pulled all the male plants at a young age and none were around. :) Methinks was the prison workers, caretaker said they are there probably 4 times/year. Lotsa nice flowers, see towards tops.

 

EDIT: Ditchweed = leftover remnants from hemp grown during WWII for ships' lines.

I use the term "tumbleweed" as a...ummm.... verb! :rolleyes:

Some of these pictures, if posted on their respective cache page, would be a real spoiler. That's probably why more aren't put in "found" logs.

 

But here's a few, from our local caching group's photo selection on Facebook:

A windy day on the top of Pikes Peak. The wind was 50-60mph and the temp was about 12-15deg. Lucky for me I just got back from Afghanistan a few days before and was use to high altitude and cold. It was funny watching people huffing and puffing in the thin air and I was not even close to being short of breath.

Me and the wife LOL just a tad windy.

I highjack a TB and take it with me and log it in to every cache I find (for mileage) and take at least one photo for each cache (for fun). After a while I drop it into a TB Hotel and pick up another one to do the same with. A lot of the pics are spoilers so I only post it on the TB page. I've found over 1,000 caches. My photo gallery is jam-packed.

 

Caching and camping in the Mojave Desert. Our campsite was 30 from a cache.

A Jumping Cholla. The needles have barbed hooks. Makes you keep your eyes open.

A Joshua Tree. Bumped into one and the needle barely pricked the back of my hand and my hand swelled to twice its size and I couldn't move my fingers. Man, I love the desert.

First things first, the pics from Viajero Perdido are fantastic! Well done!

 

Alright, here's a bunch of faves of mine that I have taken. I love to take pictures and try to take good pictures, but I don't know anything about photography. I would really appreciate it if some of you who know about photography tell me how I can make my pictures better or if you see something I'm doing wrong, etc, etc. Or if maybe some are better than other, etc. Thanks!

Found these bones in the desert. Possibly human?

It is hard to tell in a picture but they do kind of look human. It looks like the distal end of a femur and a tibia in two large fragments. The other, smaller pieces I can't identify from the picture.

 

If you took the coordinates of the remains maybe call your state archaeologist and let them know the information.

This cache was called Micro In The Desert. It was a "micro"wave oven, camoed.

Another unfortunate creature who's bones were bleached by the desert sun.

The entrance to Burro Schmidt mine. You enter here and 700 feet later you emerge on the other side of the peak and then it's another 100 feet to the cache.
