We've had our sights set on Potters Pond for a long time and have kept our month/year calendar up to date so when this day came we could claim the Jasmer. We found a Sept/2020 cache yesterday in Springvale, UT on the way to our stay in Fairview.

The hike wasn't particularly difficult, even for a couple in their third age, but the altitude had us breathing pretty hard.

Our route took us from Fairview up highway 31 to Millers Flat Rd to the PP campground turn off. All roads were well marked and in good condition. We chose to start the hike from campsite 19 which took us to a traditional and then a letterbox. The trail is well trodden and easy to see, all the way to Potters Pond.

We left a trackable but there are no others in the cache.

Finally! We've closed the circle of completing these 4 steps on our own. Thank you Southlandicebergs, porkwatch, and GoldenState Boy for your efforts and the fun. We started this in Oregon on Aug 2, 2019. Picked up the two NZ ones in Nov. '19. Now we've finally made it back to OR to grab the last one. TFTC

Wow, don't think we've worked this hard for a cache yet! Got stymied yesterday when the cartridge locked up at stage 5. Started back at stage 3 this morning and found the cache about 2 hours later. There is a lot of construction here, but the final stage is still doable. It's a scramble to get to the cache location as the trail is closed. Be careful; it was really slick today. All told, we walked at least 7 miles to get all of this. TFTC 
 
Nice to have a cache where we're staying! TFTC

All we found was the lid... couldn't find the bottom... 
 
Arrived in town today for an overnight stay. What better way to explore than by caching. Get the multi and the whereigo - two at the same time. Thanks for your efforts. All we found at the final was the cache lid; couldn't find the bottom. TFTC

Such history and still alive and well. On our way to Napier. Took a break along the way for this cache and breakfast. TFTC 
 
Completed all of the steps and enjoyed all the wonderful murals, but after a lengthy search, no container at the final coordinates given. CO may want to check it again. Note: the area near GZ is posted that it will be closed, except for foot traffic after Nov. 30. Not sure how this will impact cache. TFTC

Success!! Took us several attempts this morning before the rains drove us out. This afternoon, we re- downloaded the cartridge and knowing what we had to do first, walked right through it. Watch for traps, save as you go, follow the sequence, and read the hint. Thanks for your efforts, moneydork! TFTC
