Sun, Sep 10 2006 - Geocaching and Hike in Mill Creek Ravine (View Original Event Details)
|
It was a lovely day for geocaching! However, Shirley's dog Finn thought it was a lovely day to get lost, so the first part of the hike involved an unplanned search through the woods for the elusive dog. He was found later in the day at Shirley's place, having found his own way home at some point. No more off leash fun for the Finn! Once we got going though, we had some good fun finding the "I Suspect Mrs. Peacock" and "Vive la French" geocaches. The hints from the geocaching web site (geocaching.com) were helpful, and no one fell down the hill in the tricky section. All are now expert GPS users and one of the crew is now off to buy their own GPS. So look out for more geocaching fun in the future, possibly with two teams searching the entire city for the rest of the Clue mystery caches! Thanks to all who came and graciously helped me look for Finn.
