Some were quick finds; others took longer to reveal themselves. We added ziplock bags, new log sheets to those that needed it and replaced a couple that were gone due to roadside fires.

Wayne had an early mark from work this afternoon and couldn't resist the lure of so many newly published caches.
Our birds protested most vociferously at being put to bed at 3pm, but I knew it would be dark before we were heading for home.
So with a pen in one pocket and a torch in the other, 2 and 1/2 hours of daylight and a one hour drive, we headed off up the Range to log some FTFs.
We witnessed a glorious sunset when we stopped at Nebo Junction to buy some dinner, then drove back down Sarina Range in the dark.
Thanks for the cache and the FTF.
