+oregone Posted January 30, 2003 Share Posted January 30, 2003 N 45 28.756 W 122 41.213 N 45 28.596 W 122 41.036 I was just driving up Terwilliger when i saw something curious on the side of the road. At the above coordinates, you'll find two large piles of gravel surrounded by buckets. Maybe the parks department is strapped for cash or something, because apparently they can't finish resurfacing the trail whose heads are represented by said above coordinates. I grabbed a bucket and walked down the gravelled trail about 100 feet. Sure enough, the gravel ended and the mud began. So i dumped the gravel out of my bucket and created two more feet of trail. I then continued to walk along the trail for about 100 more feet before the gravel began again. I repeated the process on the way back to the car. Anyway, i was thinking what a great event cache this would be. But then i got really lazy and decided i'd just let y'all know that if you want to score some karma points with the satellite gods, you can head out to this park and help complete a trail that is in much need of a little lovin'. all rights reserved, all wrongs reversed Quote Link to comment
+Mr. Snazz Posted January 30, 2003 Share Posted January 30, 2003 I bet those who were going to make the trail in the first place would be very surprised when they come back to finish the job Quote Link to comment
+bazzle Posted January 30, 2003 Share Posted January 30, 2003 If this is the same one I saw while doing Play Ball and one other puzzle cache not to be named here , then it has been there for some time. I too moved a few buckets of gravel while finding these caches a month or so ago, as there are instructions to do so... Life is as much a journey of discovery, as it is a discovery of the journey... **Namaste** Quote Link to comment

Join the Bucket Brigade!" I probably shoulda maybe, um, mentioned that important piece of information... all rights reserved, all wrongs reversed Quote Link to comment

+slinger91 Posted January 30, 2003 Share Posted January 30, 2003 Since prop 28 failed, you guy's might need "teach our kids brigade", and "house our prisoners brigade". "If I knew how thirsty I was going to be this morning, I would have drank more last night." Quote Link to comment
+Mr. Snazz Posted January 31, 2003 Share Posted January 31, 2003 The local army surplus store has some very large cache containers, we could house a few convicts in those... just hide the caches in the depths of Harney county, they'll be in there for at least a year. And, nothing like dropping a kid in the middle of the woods to teach him a thing or two Quote Link to comment
+Uplink Posted January 31, 2003 Share Posted January 31, 2003 Buckets are pretty slow. Just think of what you could do with a bit of wheelbarrow technology! http://www.wheelbarrowfreestyle.com/main.html Quote Link to comment

How do you know they weren't trying to remove the gravel from the trail (put it back to it's natural state) and make huge piles with it? Maybe you just set their efforts back. ---- Duct tape is like the Force. It has a light side and a dark side, and it holds the universe together. Quote Link to comment
