The Indestructible Cache

[cedarmt]

I placed the GNR High Anxiety cache under a tree in 2003. Last year, a forest fire burned over 70,000 acres around the cache. I expected it to be toast. However, someone went to find it in the dead forest. In the middle of a million dead trees, there's one tree still alive. The one protected by GNR High Anxiety. Thanks to civicpilot for finding it and for the photos.

I know this is an old post, but I love the story and photo!

This is amazing. There is a good reason why the cache went unscathed.
