The 'day before Knoxville' run with airsax, MotorBug, Capn Finder, GeoBrowns, and bthomas. We'd been driving for nearly 3 hours at this point and were anxious for a cache. Thanks for providing a convenient opportunity!

The 'day before Knoxville' run with airsax, MotorBug, Capn Finder, GeoBrowns, and bthomas. I love those summit caches! Expanding views of Clear Lake on the way up were capped by what we found at the top. Fantastic. Crisp and clear, and the start to a great day. TFTC.
The Pinicle of our day
By: Team Trouble! Difficulty: 4.5 Terrain: 4.5 Container: Other
The 'day before Knoxville' run with airsax, MotorBug, Capn Finder, GeoBrowns, and bthomas. What a fun and challenging cache! After eliminating a lot of more likely possibilities, and really concentrating on the wording of the hint, our group made the find. I think we were on scene for about an hour, but after all the effort to get there, there was no way we were going to leave without a find. Beautiful views and another box in my Fizzy matrix to boot. Thanks ever so much for the cache! I dropped a red jeep TB.

The Fish Story

The 'day before Knoxville' run with airsax, MotorBug, Capn Finder, GeoBrowns, and bthomas.
Here's my fish story. Sing along if you want. [;)]
Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale,
A tale of a fateful trip
That started from a dusty road,
Aboard a rugged jeep.
The mates were mighty cachin' crazies,
The trail boss brave and sure,
Six passengers set sail that day
For a lake bottom tour.
A lake bottom tour. [ sound of thunder: crack ! ]
The dry crust was sticky underneath,
The rugged jeep was sinking fast.
If not for the courage of the fearless crew,
The ZJ would be lost.
The ZJ would be lost.
The jeep's aground on the bed of this
Uncharted reservoir
With mjp303, and Motor Bug too,
The GeoBrown and his wife (not really, she stayed home),
airsax, Cap'n Finder and bthomas,
Here on Indian Valley Reservoir!
So this is the tale of our castways,
They're here for a long, long time
They'll have to make the best of things,
It's a sticky, muddy tow.
mjp303 and the rest too,
Will do their very best,
To make themselves comfortable,
In their lake bottom nest.
No (working) phone! With fading light! Barely enough tow straps!
Not a single luxury,
Like Robinson C-ru-soe, it's primitive as can be.
So join us here at GC.com my friends,
You're sure to get a smile,
From six stranded castways,
Here on Indian Valley Reservoir.
Thanks for the adventure. Memories to last for a lifetime; that's for sure!
It's All About the Smiley's #1
By: The Armchair Climber Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 4.5 Container: Micro
The 'day before Knoxville' run with airsax, MotorBug, Capn Finder, GeoBrowns, and bthomas. As mentioned, an after-dark assult. About 20' from the road, we encountered a seemingly impenetrable thicket. bthomas and I pushed on while the others decided to circle around. Eventually the two of us made it to the rock. I wasn't feeling too nimble in the dark, but he made the find after putting his hand on the cache while casting about for a hand-hold to get closer to an out of reach spot. Thanks for the challenge!

The 'day before Knoxville' run with airsax, MotorBug, Capn Finder, GeoBrowns, and bthomas. I smelled the sulfur and fell for his trick when GeoBrowns said "Oh, excuse me!". What a rascal! TFTC.

The 'day before Knoxville' run with airsax, MotorBug, Capn Finder, GeoBrowns, and bthomas. Capn Finder and I were the principal searcher on this one. I must of looked at that hiding spot 3 times and still missed it. It's time to call it a day! TFTC.
