Nice easy find in western Nebraska. No mugglers and the weather was pretty nice. TFTC!
I traveled from Spokane to Colorado Springs this weekend grabbing caches along the way. I do not have Nebraska on my map and didn't know when I would ever get the chance again, so I made the detour out of Cheyenne. This was a nice fun grab. TFTC!!
Took a little detour from going to Denver and headed West to grab this cache and one in Wyoming. An easy find on this wicked windy day!

I'm lucky I was with my Mom, because I wouldn't have been able to reach it by myself. My Mom logged the log as painted1 and kid. I'm the kid.

We had a 4 day weekend...started from Ohio to get Mingo in Kansas...some how we ended up here....now we will cache home. I am in pic with with Mushroom Girl. Tftc
Nice welcome, my first in Nebraska. Good to find, hint is clear now. Thanks to the owner.
Well, This is the Trip that we Knew was coming, but would not be a "Fun" one or "Vacation" or "GeoTrip". Reason was Rather simple. My grandmother passed away. Sunday was the day we HAD to be there, and Flying was not an option.
Picked up the rental(One we'd used on another geo-trip) LATE on the 19th and started our trip. Passed into NE at 0245 on 10/20/12, and started grabbing caches to finish Lizard_Smes I-80 portion of NE Delorme Challenge. I had already done most all the pages on a previous solo trip a few years ago. The OTHER Good thing is that it Definitely kept us awake and alert at the Late and EARLY times.
We Pulled into North Platte, NE at 0730, and slept at the Oak Tree Inn for a few hours(They DO accept "Short Stays" of 8-12 hours). Got back up at 1200 and on the road at 1245 after 'breakfast' at the Penny's Diner(Us RRers are used to it.)
Pulled across the NE/IA State line at 1645, and grabbed ONE cache in Hamburg, IA. I don't THINK we had a cache in this DeLorme Square either, and it was the ONLY cache that would qualify.
Another Border crossing of IA/MO at 1710 landed us into Missouri for the short trip. Strangely, with as "Geo-obsessed" as many people have said to us over the years, we DIDN'T even get a single cache in Missouri...
Left Missouri on the 23rd LATE in the evening and took a Slightly different route Back. Did the US 136 Bridge crossing border of MO/NE at 2125 and grabbed 4 caches before Sleeping Soundly in Lincoln for the night. In the morning, I glanced at the weather and BLIZZARD! Yeah?!?!? Thought of changing routes, but the "Best route" was Still I-80 and Hoping that it would stay open for us to pass thru.
MANY(At Least 20) Jackknifed Simi Truck trailers littered I-80 from Kimball,NE to Walcott, WY. Luckily we stayed SLOW and on the road in control of ourselves. We followed a slow moving simi that had chained up and was basically making a weaving path thru the disabled rigs. At one point, I looked down at the speedometer and thought 8 MPH felt TOO FAST in these conditions. Yeah. It was bad.
We Pulled into our driveway at 2355 on the 24th. This was just 5 Minutes before I "Marked back up" ont he board and could be called to work. Bed called my name and I answered.

Yeah, our first find in Nebraska. We found this during our Colorado trip. We were caching from CO up to WY and we were so close to the border of NE that we just had to do it. Thanks for the easy find for us
Nice find on a hot and windy day! The cache is missing a lid, and someone had made one with electrical tape which is fast losing its stickiness. We left it pretty tight so I don't think it will be going anywhere soon. Didn't read the hint first, so not sure if it went exactly in the same location; we placed it where we found it. TFTC.
Hot and windy on the high plains today, but this was a quick find. Now I have another state in my collection! Great day for caching and running a power trail a little farther south. TFTC!
US12. Got to love a good border crossing, especially for a new state for me. Everything where it should be. Thanks.
