We are two Australian teams (Liz and Bruce and The Drovers) who are on a mega road trip of some of the great States of the USA. Our travels over the next couple of days are taking us through South Dakota, Minnesota and Nebraska and Colorado. Nice work. Thanks to GetOBT for its placement and adding to our enjoyment of this location.
USA road trip 2015, traveling with Liz and Bruce. Week 6, day 7.
Drove from Grand Island to Colorado Springs, stopping along the way to pick up a few caches.
Most caches were found after a short search, some were a little tricky.
Left: Aussie pencil, and other swag.
Many thanks for placing this cache, GetOBT, for us and others to find.

Loving this series! Thanks for the making it possible, I am trying to hit them all, I have found 6 so far and planning on getting the others soon. I signed the log, took a pic with the camera, I left a plastic card about geocaching and leaving no trace. I did nab a keychain, I am trying to collect them all. Thanks again.
Headed out to eastern Colorado today. The weather was a bit breezy and cool. We enjoyed our day and all of the placements.
We found it today at 7:53 pm. Thanks for the lesson. SL. TFTC.

What kind of a fun adventure can 4 Geocachers have in one day? Hiking_fool, Rob14erguy, Geo-chik, and I started out at 4am with a few goals in mind. We visited 3 states, drove 540 miles in 16 hours, successfully survived a "Pucker-Factor 10" quarter mile "Mud Bogging" experience in "BFE" (GC1B43 - See logs for pictures), found 40 caches, of which we fixed/repaired 5, had a nice picnic (GC31 & GC2RNXB, See logs for pictures) , and just had an overall great time on our Wild-and-Crazy Adventure! We saw a Red Fox, a Coyote, a Road Runner, a Pheasant, 3 Partridges, a few cows and a bull that got loose. We also found at least one cache placed in each year for 10 of the 14 years caches have been placed to date. We found caches placed in 2000, 2001, 2002, 2004, 2006, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012. Thanks to all those who placed caches for us to find, and to my 3 great friends who shared this Wild-and-Crazy Adventure with me! SL, TFTC!

Thirteenth find of the day while out with OF-Erad, Rob14erguy and Hiking_fool on a caching adventure into 3 states! Rob and HF had already gotten this one - prior road trips - but OF-Erad and I were happy to stop and make a quick grab here. I think Erad took one of the numerous carabiners; SL. Thanks for the cache!
MUGGLED !!!
We dropped by today while on a road trip along I-70, got to GZ, searched in the snow for a bit and found what looked like where the cache USED to be, due to the clearing on the ground. One foot away we found the laminated 8.5 x 11 sheet of paper stating "You found it intentionally or not". Nothing else to be found.
We rolled that up and tucked it under some brush, and continued on our way. Dang!

We needed a stretch break from I-70 and this cache was close by. Interesting history lesson.
Found @ 12:12:00 PM. Thanks for the hunt.

#15786 Found while passing through the area on my way to Limon. Parked a short distance away and walked over to the cache. Found it easily, signed in, and headed off down the road. TFTC
US12. Well, up on my last day of road travel on this trip. I had to back to Denver Airport by 12 to return the car, so it was a short day caching. I am glad I chose here for a stop as this old tower was a great sight. Thanks
