  • Found GC4HW74 HR7 - Mid Stream

    This checkin to GC4HW74 HR7 - Mid Stream reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Another nice quick find for Robin and I.

    This checkin to GC59ZR1 HR7a - Been Here Before reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs.

    This checkin to GC4K1Y7 HR19 - Stepping Towards Home reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs.

One encouraged us to trust the coordinates, and โ€ฆ

    This checkin to GC4HW8D HR20 - Big Histo Pot reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Not ones to be told which way to walk, we took on the HRx series only partially.
