Elk Creek Mountain Home, Idaho, United States
By League of Id Cachers on 30-Mar-11. Waypoint GC2R85X

Another find here in Idaho at the begining of what is the last of 8 weeks here in the USA while on a holiday/caching trip. Flew up from Vegas this morning and hit this trail shortly after arriving. 119 finds for the afternoon, 1 DNF and a couple of did not attempts.

All great fun, easy unsealed roads and only past about 5 other cars all afternoon.

Thanks to the League of Id Cachers for all the caches....now to work out tomorrows route....

Greetings from Australia.

We had another great day on the trails on our trip to Idaho. We did encounter one unpleasant man when he tried to tell us we were on his private property and was very vocally complaining about people coming down his road and walking all around just like they owned the place (his words). There were no signs up when we went down the road but there was where we left it. There were many caches along these roads and we wondered how everyone was getting away with it if he owned the roads. He didn't actually tell us to leave so we continued and wouldn't you know it, we met him coming back later escorting a transport. We expected him to stop and give us hell but he kept on going. Later in the day we came upon another road strung with caches and there was his sign again saying no trespassing/private property. We stopped and were just sitting there for the moment when a truck pulled up and we thought it was him again, so hubby got out and asked him if we could go down his road for these caches. It apparently wasn't the same man, but sure looked like him, and he laughed and said it was a public road and no one could stop us from driving on it. There was even a note in one of the caches we found stating "Do you know this is private property?" It kind of took some of the fun out of the day for us. We signed the log as 2 Gypsies and thanks to everyone who placed these caches.

Team Lorriebird (Lorriebird, ZSteve, ShadowTiger and GreenWoodTurner) were in the area again for our second expedition into the Locomotive geo-art. Having finished the locomotive, we spent our last day together focusing on some of the power trails in the Mountain Home area. It was a cold and blustery day, but we had a great time exploring the back roads!

It's celebration time! After completing the entire Locomotion yesterday, what should we do today? Why, go caching, of course! Had a most wonderful day and we are grateful for the Geocaching Mecca that Idaho has become. Thanks again for all the smileys and the memories that I will take home to Florida tomorrow!

Last day of caching fun with Lorriebird and Team Greenwoodturner today. We finished hiking the train yesterday, so decided it was time for a little less physically challenging caching today. Unfortunately, the wind was nasty strong, so it took quite a bit of effort just to open the door to get out of the geo-rig. I must admit though that we were glad we weren't hiking. Had a great time out here - Lots of great memories. Thanks for the fun!

Out and about simply working on this run while the weather is great. Caches were in good shape, or we simply replaced them. Thanks for creating and maintaining this series, it has furnished us with a greater appreciation of what Idaho can offer in the way of beauty. SL with the initials "VGG".

Short time out on runs this morning, managed 150 though.
Need to sort though yesterdays finds, Gsak double logged a bunch.
Thanks to all CO's for their efforts.

Out with All4Fun! on a great day for caching, trying to hit the magic number: Cache #1000!! We signed as $buddies. I want to say how much I appreciate the maintenance of these caches out here--it was a lot of fun! Thanks so much! We took many photographs of the Elk Creek Complex fire devastation.

Out with kre8stuff purely for the numbers! The goal - both of us to hit #1000 on this run. This will also involve getting over 100 caches in one run. Thanks for all the well maintained caches out here - fire and all.

Took two times, but I got it done. Helps not having snow on the ground when finding these caches.

Finally getting a chance to cache my own backyard. Its still hot out, but not as hot as where was living. Thanks for the string of beauties!

Day 7 of the Guys Roadtrip 2013 with Tombmaker! We picked up on the Idaho Quality Trail where we left off late last night. Still heading from North to South, through Mountain Home. We did the top 100 series and much of the ICS series. As we were finishing up late in the night, a huge thunderstorm came in and started a fire behind us a few miles away. We stopped and drove over to it. It was massive and generated intense heat. We were eventually told to leave the area for our safety. It was perfect weather and we found so many great caches today. Thanks to all that placed the caches, both new and old. Greatly appreciate all the maintenance to keep them fresh. TFTC. SL.

We dove into this series on a travel day. We got a late start but managed to find a few hundred anyways. The next day we knocked out the remainder, finishing with over 600 finds. As we finished we stopped and watched a thunder and lightening show. The lightening struck in several areas, starting fires! One of the fires burned in an area of the trail that we were caching on earlier in the day. We took some photos as the crews positioned themselves to fight the fires. My brother HiDude_98 and I enjoyed the series and the variety of caching hides and containers. Thank you for placing these caches!

Heidi and me visited this nice cache in our great trip to USA and CANADA. We took 27 days for visit the biggest powertrails in Washington, British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Montana, Wyoming, Idaho and Oregon. Visiting the first cache, the GC12 and the Geocaching HQ. We met several geocachers in our trip, HELLO AGAIN!. In the 6000 miles driven by 4x4, 400 miles in ATV and some more walking and hiking, we found more than 6000 caches. For us is impossible to remember every cache we found for a personal log. We are going to use this same log for all caches. Thanks to all geocachers for place this big quantity of caches and give us the oportunity to enjoy seaching them. Thanks for the cache. Seping (Barcelona, Spain). www.megaevent2014.com

Found in our trip to Canada and USA during the summer. Thank you very much! we had a great time. Heidi

Found while out caching with RdDrgn22. We signed the log as Team Us! Thanks for the fun and the smiley. Keep the caches coming!

Found this one while out for the day with Baby Girl Sherry. We logged the cache as Team Us! Thanks for the fun, the hide, and the smiley! We performed maintenance and replaced logs throughout the day as needed.

Taking the whole family out on a power caching adventure! Lots of snacks and lots of water! Thankful for the breeze and a relatively quick and easy trail-- I believe we got our most ever today. Thank you for placing this cache!

Found by Lyni9 and Gas409 while trying to survive the heat spell that has struck Idaho. Quit caching earlier than usual today before we got a heat stroke. Thanks for hiding this cache.
