There are a few questionable caches on the route:

   #39 Noisy Bridge  https://coord.info/GC156HT   A couple of DNFs as the last logs

   #49 Rocks of Ruck  https://coord.info/GC9DG58   Currently disabled, but CO may have it ready for the CM

   #94 New Headquarters - Willapa Wildlife Refuge [CDS] https://coord.info/GC6R98D   A couple of DNFs as the last logs

 

Any last minute changes will be announced at the Friday night event, Pre-Cache Machine Meetup - Astoria Edition  https://www.geocaching.com/geocache/GCB0R7Q

 

Looking forward to seeing everybody next weekend.

Final updates: the first number is from the Cachetur list the second number is from the PDF Map

Cachetur     Map
#14             #17           Ft. Stevens Lot B        (Bog)
#39             #39           Noisy Bridge               (DNF)
#49             #49           Rocks of Ruck            (Disabled)
#78             #84           Catching Waves          (DNF)
#79             #85           Boardwalk Bellcache   (Flooded)
#99             #107         Ruth's rabbit rose raise (DNF)

FYI   #101    #109   The Yellow Gate isn't yellow anymore. Shiny aluminum.
#93 is just aa reference point for #94   

The difference in the numbers is the cachetur list has more parking locations and waypoints to force the route.
