We had just enough time (we thought) to do one more series on the way back to Vegas to catch a plane back to Alaska, so we chose the phonetic alphabet series just up the road. After finishing it, we thought we'd do just a couple in your series and we picked up the 10 or so going west. We looked at each other and said, "maybe we have time for a few more." So, we drove down to the end of the road and headed back west, telling ourselves that we would quit at a certain time. Well, we liked it so much that we finished that stretch of the road before heading on to Vegas. These are nicely done, with spot on coords. Love the names. Thank you.
Greetings from Davis, CA! Papa EGTH and I are on our 4th day of vacation and today we are heading from Furnace Creek in Death Valley to Barstow.
We stopped in this area to pick up caches for DeLorme challenges and this one was in a pretty trashy area. We located it quickly, but made sure to avoid the dirty diaper sitting less than 1 foot away from the cache. Thanks, I guess.

Found out I was coming to Las Vegas a few weeks ago to go to The World of Concrete 2013 show. Of course when I found out, I was trying to figure out if I'd be able to get out to the desert and do some geocaching. Turns out I got into town a couple days early, and decided to tackle the PTA series, and then if that went well, I'd work on at least 1 piece of geoart, and then finish off the remaining 200 caches I missed on Route 66 last year. Turns out there are A LOT of caches out here! Worked out the PTA series from 6am right up till 10pm and had to call it a day with about 100 left to go, actually I had the state/capital series left, but I grouped it with the PTA since they're all connected. Also managed to grab about 75% of the Motor Home geoart, I think I could have finished it, but then I'd be in no shape to go to the tradeshow so I figue I'll finish it when I come back to work on the new Peace Sign geo-art. Finished up the PTA Series on the 5th, by about 10am, and headed over to finish the RT66 series, of course there were several more caches on the series now, and grabbed as many as I could. All in all this was an awesome 2 days of power caching. Managed to grab 806 caches in a total 32.5 hours of cache time! Thanks to everyone who place caches in these series, or near these series, I really enjoyed finding your cache, and the work you put into maintaining these caches. I had an increible time, and the weather was perfect! Saw lots of wildlife, and fortunatly no rattle snakes this time Thanks again for a fabulous 2 days in the desert!
Turned a 5 hour trip into a 12 hour solo caching voyage. What a great day! Starting in Vegas, I hit up all of Primm, Baker, Yermo road and anything in between. Picked up 63 smiles! Thanks to all for a great day! Tftc
On my way back to Vegas from Oceanside, I had a blast doing the Yermo trail and several other caches in the area. Thanks for placing this one so I could find it with the Sun shining and winds blowing strong today! TNLN/SL TFTC!!
My wife (Buffy the Cache Hunter) and I rented an RV for the long weekend so we could do the geo-art in the Mojave. We had a blast walking from cache to cache. However, it was tough going and after two days, we were beat. Plus, it was an extra hour from home. So, we parked the RV along Yermo Road and rode our bikes. She rode out and back for 20 miles. I rode 8 miles out and then cached my way back. The bike was great for this. I was able to grab 3 of the caches without even getting off the bike. Some of the caches need new caps -- Someone should bring a handfull of soda bottle caps.
Dear Cache, Wow what a trip! Team STNY hooked up once again to do some caching in the west. AKiteFlier from Chicago, Illinois and Humboldt Flier from N.W. California have invaded the deserts of the American Southwest. This will be our 3rd. trip out west together, with multiple trips for each of us as members of other teams. Something about the desert seems to keep calling us back. This time our target was the Route 66 trail plus interesting caches along the way. We also focused on solving some puzzles to add to our non-traditionals. We logged a total of 1167 miles on the rental car! Now that's a lot of driving. The weather was spectacular - mid 60s and clear, clear skies. Cold at night. Thanks for the leg stretch. Thanks for the fun. Many Thanks to your owner for having placed you. TNLN SL TFTC
Gathering more caches this morning before heading home with the TAZ team: Lookin'Good, Subman123, Scratch1, grandmabetsy and Roadrunners. Thanks for all of the caches placed and maintained here, and fun!
09/05/2012 21:09 Found: On holiday from Australia for 4 weeks and heading into Barstow and Las Vegas to do Route 66 and then the ET Highway. Another trail too good to pass up, decided to attack this at night, completed it in 2 hours. Great to get another USA smiley.TFTC
Found it! This one is a lot harder to find with all the miriad of hiding places!! Signed the log, thanks for the hide.
Keep on Caching!

Thanks for all the hard work and time it took to place all these caches. Ultrahide and I went on a 10 day epic camping adventure through NM, AZ, CA, NV, UT and back to CO. We ended up with 1,744 caches including 32 virtuals, 6 WIGs and 5 events after 3,080 miles. We had a great time finding these caches. We signed the log as Team NOCO and a TB number. I wish I had the time to log a personal log on each cache like normal but there are way too many to remember the details now. Thanks for the cache. Happy Trails.

After doing the R66 Power Trail who could resist another one, we found this series was slighty harder and had to think a bit more as well as the varied cache hid and place ment also made it tricky to use the rolling cache log method so we had to adapt every now and again , but for the most part it was quick finds just a bit more leg work required
A great warm down from the Power Trail thanks
Another day in the Barstow area we have completed the Route66 series now exploring the area.

Hello from Canberra, Australia
US12. Back into the swing of power trail caching, this one proved a bit different to the R66 ones, and had a few challenging hides along the way. Thanks.
