US14 ET Highway Trip with Sol de Lune and Mtrax. Day 5. Today we were off from Barstow, and after a morning in Calico we were back to caching along Amboy road doing some of the HMD series. We were in Calico ton, so this was a short detour from the back of the town. Thanks.

So we had to pay 8 dollars each to grab a cache by pactractor way up here in Calico. Well it was a good hide and the place was empty today, so no stealth was needed. Thanks for placing the hide, leaving our wallets empty, but still adding a smile to our day!

.ftf I found these caches with my midwestern buddies, my friends from Tucson and more allies from Utah and Idaho. How did we all get together? We were nearly nuts by the end of the week. What a great time we had finding these. Thanks. This was quite an adventure. We went after the other ones in the area. We went and worked on ET and The Guantlet. We moved on to El Dorado HMD and CCX. We only got a few on the SM series. Another return trip to the Matrix is due. What a great week. I had done some of these before the group assault.

Rainy Road trip day from San Diego to Vegas with Juicepig - Did not feel very desert like with all the downpours we walked through, but it certainly felt like an adventure! Thanks for adding to the awesomeness!
