Companions: None
Muggles: None
Weather: Warm fall afternoon
Cache condition: Good

I was driving from Zion Canyon to Las Vegas and decided to find a traditional cache in each of the 3 states. I had stored the details for this cache before leaving Australia, which was lucky as the mobile signal was a bit dodgy. TNLNSL, TFTC

The Frenchies are on vacation in Las Vegas and take the opportunity to make many caches in the area, we discover the American West (Death Valley, Grand Canyon and so on…) and more especially the city of Las Vegas through all hidden caches in the sector, the weather is perfect and finally we'll find all caches.

Thank you to all the owners of these discoveries and all boxes that allowed us to visit a small part of the United States.

We drop some travel bugs off on some caches and we give some favorite points for the most surprising geocaches or most successful.

Les Français sont en vacances à Las Vegas et en profitent pour faire de nombreuses caches dans le secteur, nous découvrons un l’ouest américain et la ville de Las Vegas en parcourant toutes les caches du secteur, la météo est parfaite et nous trouverons toutes les caches recherchées.

Merci à tous les owners pour ces découvertes et toutes ces nombreuses boites qui nous ont permis de visite une toute petite partie des Etats-Unis.

Nous déposons quelques travel bugs sur quelques caches et donnons des points favoris aux caches les plus surprenantes ou les plus réussies.

Thanks for all caches and greetings from FRANCE.

Cool idea for a cache... although it currently more closely resembles a T. Very fun an clever hide.

Our second Arizona cache and third for the day as we drove from Pahrump, Nevada to Zion National park. We found a similar cache called X marks the spot in Phrump and we thought it was so funny that we just had to stop and grab this one as well. Awesome views of the mountains from this cache. The x has seen finer days but we still had no trouble finding the cache. As we walked back to the car the cache owner pulled up and asked if we found it. He explained to us that the x's are actually placed by surveyors and that was not something he had put in place. We've never seen anything like that back in Wisconsin. So fun to meet our first cache hider on our trip out west. Thanks for placing and stopping by to visit with us.

Sadly, the X is all torn up. And also sadly, we didn't find the cache. Hopefully we'll get it next time!
