In Denver for a couple of days before heading home to Australia. Headed out this side of the airport to grab what caches I could. The overnight snow falls made life interesting, but it good to have a go in the snow.

Found most I went for, the others, I just though the snow might have covered then too much.

All up a good way to spend a few hours. Many thanks to all CO's, and greetings from Australia.....

Other than the first travel day with blowing dust and 70 MPH winds followed by torrential rain, the caching weather was just great. Thanks to all the CO's for the great variety of hides and all the time and effort to keep them serviced. Its always a lot of fun caching on the high planes! TFTC

Took a little searching, but got it.

Mile High Til I Die!

Thanks for the fun.

Had a great trip to CO and enjoyed my day on the plains. I haven't been out here since we moved to CA over two years ago and it was nice to add a few more 's to the map. Thanks for adding to a fun trip!

Beautiful church

Quick (if i could call it that) drive cross country to help postal patty move from CA to MN. Grabbing a few caches along route when time a caches permints. Thanks for all the owners that have placed and maintainied to keep this our streaks alive.

On a long 5 day car ride to my new home Retro and I stopped to get as many caches as we had time for along the way. Thanks to all who put them out there!

We are out for another wonderful day of geocaching with our good friends and fellow geocachers, the Golden B's. And what fun we are having!!! Mr. Golden B's picked caches all along Colfax and we are having a ball gathering all the smileys! This one had me a bit confused, but not Mrs. Golden B's. She walked right to it! It is, indeed, a heavenly view from here. TFTC

We are having a grand time on the eastern plains with our friends, Chihuahuas-3. What a beautiful day and beautiful view! Thank you for the cache and for bringing us out here.

Beautiful church out in the middle of nowhere! Signed log. Thanks for the cache!

We're out to do some caching with Bunsterpar on a lovely late spring afternoon. It's so great to see green fields, and best of all--no snow, except on the distant mountains. TFTC!

What a beautiful church! Out for the day with BluePearl.

Very fun day caching out on the Plains. Got over 40 caches. Almost all were in good condition, a few we did very minor maintenance to (including one of ours) and we replaced a missing cache. Saw cows, horses, and some deer. No snakes spotted today. Thanks to all the COs who placed these caches for us to find.

Found it caching with my daughter out east of Denver, Colorado.

The weather was excellent for Geocaching, sunny and not to hot.

SL,TFTC.

Came to the area early to cache before picking up Ms Barasaur from DIA. Yep I was here a few hours early and ended up with somewhere around 110 caches on the day. My highest day ever. TFTC for me to find today.

Taking advantage of another nice day before yet another winter storm. TFTC

It was a beautiful day to clean up a section of the caches in the Great Plains of Colorado. Thank you for the cache.

After spending several months exploring the Great Northwest and caching along the E.T. Highway, we are now headed back to the midwest. Of course we are caching along the way to get new counties for our geo map. Found cache. SL TNLN TFTC

Visiting the Denver area from Dallas, Texas with Zeppo! for Geocoinfest. Decided to play hookey from work today, and flew in last night. So we spent the day caching around the airport.

Left the hotel at 5:30 AM. What is up with this cold and even SNOW in the morning. The car said it was 27 degrees outside. And why didn't we remember to bring jackets? Eventually the temperatrue got up to 41, but it sure didn't feel must warmer than 30!!! Have I mentioned yet how cold it was today? Should I say it was 90 degrees in Dallas today?

We made a run today and ended up with about 240 caches for the day. Great times! Prairieearth joined us for the last hour.

A few memories:

1. Zeppo almost backing the rental car into a metal pole - a few times
2. The cache that was under the dead deer - well, what was left of it ....
3. The sun - yes it did break out for a few minutes this morning!
4. The cute lil bugs hiding caches! Some containers were very cool!
5. The podcasts! I think Zeppo finally came close to catching up!
6. Making 100 caches today, then 200 caches, and then surpassing our old record of 227 caches in one day!
7. Zeppo making 19000 cache finds today!! Congrats buddy!
8. Lunch on the fly .. well... me making sandwiches in the car on the way to another run ... with food flying all over the car as zeppo rounded corners pretty fast...
9. Almost driving into the corn field ...... another story there!!!
10. Good times with my buddy.
11. Wet feet. Cold wet feet all day long. And then the dash to walmart at the end to get dry tennis shoes!
12. The deer we saw this morning while caching.
13. All the buddy rabbits keeping an eye on the caches, but running away as we approached!
14. Caching in the snow .... kinda cool!

Appreciate all of the caches and the time to place, publish and maintain them! Thanks for the smiley!

Geocoinfest Weekend with PrairieEarth and WadeMercer.

At dawn, during the snow fall, we started our caching day. It was pretty amazing seeing the deer, rabbits, and prairie dogs today. Our feet got wet, but our spirits held strong. Yesterday, WadeMercer found his 21,000th find and today, I found my 19,000th. Tomorrow hopefully PrarieEarth will find his 4,000th. It is a special weeekend.

1:58:00 PM: At every turn we found something special.

Thanks for the fun as our last stop of the night is the meet and greet!

Team find by zeppo! and WadeMercer.

Last day of our CO trip. We did all quick drive up's this afternoon mostly on country roads southeast of the airport. Thanks for hiding them all for us to find.

Cached mostly in the country today, my favorite place to cache, too much traffic in the city. TFTH

Got this one but had to pass on the spirit quest nearby. Someone was taking a very extended smoke break and I decided 5 minutes was long enough to wait.

Caching in the area with my better half. Thanks so much for placing these caches.

We arrived in Denver and stopped to grab a few caches before we had to head downtown for a barbeque at my son's.Thanks for putting all these caches out for us.

US12. This turned out to be a long and productive day caching out behind the airport. Lots of under used roads with all manner of cache hides. A great day that was a little bit reminiscent of the power trail in California on Route 66, just by myself this time. Thanks.
