[Az-Geocaching] New monthly record?

Wed, 27 Mar 2002 13:59:36 -0700

But it is fun placing caches. 3 of my 5 will soon be open for full service
again (altho really only one was blocked due to winter (gated road). The 3
were only hard to get to if it snowed alot (which it didn't) because they
are up HIGH.....the other 2 are closer to "Prescott Proper."
I have plans for a fun but challenging 4-part multi-cache (all within a few
miles, tho') that I scoped out last fall, if I stay in AZ thru this summer I
will put it out. If I can find the paperwork (places and coord's) I did on
it!!!!
10 hours to place a  cache? WOW, that must be some kind of record.....!  :-)
