    This checkin to GLG6FF6C Constellations 3 reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. A tougher find for presquevu and I.

    This checkin to GC1TPQM Constellations 12 reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. presquevu and I spent a while hunting for this, but were interrupted by curious-looking dog walkers and didn't want to continue to look so suspicious within such close range of a school. So after this DNF, we called โ€ฆ
