Logs for McGeesters 

What an excellent adventure completing this challenge has been! We noticed that we were just 10 away from finishing when we first heard about a Jasmer challenge, without even trying. Of course, the hardest ones to get were left! A plan was conceived and Mrs McGeester hit the road with Dragon's Passion 4 Caching on a five day, five state road trip, picking up Potter's Pond, Vitreous, Need a Drink and Southern Idaho's First along with many other great caches. Yesterday we hiked up to Mitchell Point to fill in the last date we needed, that was an awesome adventure in itself! Many thanks for placing an Oregon version of this challenge! We have created a bookmark list and will post a screenshot of our Jasmer grid from My Geocaching Profile too. 

The Dragon and I set off from Oregon on a five day, five state adventure. Our goal was to grab four of the oldest caches for the Jasmer Challenge, one in Oregon, Idaho, Utah and California. We connected with our friend BostonMangum and made the trip up into the mountains. This was my first time seeing Utah, and it is beautiful here! We made our way across the creek and hit the 'Hot Wheels' cache first, then ended up bushwacking straight up to the cache, missing the subtle trail. Lots of fallen trees made it a bit of a challenge. The kids (and Dragon) had fun inspecting the swag, and we traded trackables, then took the much easier route back down. Thanks for an excellent adventure!

We've had this on the watchlist for quite some time, hoping it would come near enough for us to find. We're so glad to finally get the opportunity to sign it today at the 10 Years! event at the Redland grange. Thank you!!!
