"AGT-Crawford-Gibson Park" find # 54 on 10/13/08

This was our 3rd find of the day and 6th (and final) find for AGT-Crawford. What seemed to be an easy find turned into quite the hunt. After getting back into the general area of the cache, we had a heck of a time actually locating it. Both our GPS units had has roaming quite a large area to narrow it down. Finally, J was ale to pinpoint the coords and locate the cache.

At this cache, J decided to mark the "GeoTruck" as a waypoint to see how close it would get him back to the truck. He ended up a lot further away than he would have liked!! We'll have to keep working on that!!

Until next time..........

"AGT-Crawford-Sibling Soldiers Returns" find #53 on 10/13/08

Our 2nd find of the day and 5th for AGT-Crawford. This was a beautiful short walk along a four-wheeler trail. The hint for this one came in quite handy for finding the cache.

As you can see, the area around here is still quite green. I'm guessing it started changing within a few weeks from when we were there. I know it would be quite picturesque with full fall colors!

Well, we still had one more stop to make on the way home, so we quickly signed the log, stamped the passports, left some goodies, and headed on our way.

Until next time..........

"AGT-Crawford-French Kiss" find # 52 on 10/13/08

What a neat place for a hide. This took a little searching. Thank goodness J is so tall! I don't think I could have found it on my own! The picture doesn't due the tree (or is it a stump?) justice. I was able to stand inside the hole!!

The creek this is near is kinda neat, too. the short little walk to the cache area is nice. Plus, we had a beautiful day. We were on our way back home from the GeoCoinFest and figured we'd finish up Crawford County AGT along the way.

Until next time.........

"AGT-Crawford-#13 Reash Church Cache" find #49 on 10/11/08

This was our final cache of the day. The third AGT-Crawford was a relatively quick cache and dash. From here we headed down to stay at J's parents.

We were both pretty excited about the event and couldn't wait to see all the different coins. Tomorrow I will post about the event.

Until then........

The additional hints for this one was "Thorns and Vines!!", and they were not kidding. After a short walk into the woods, the cache was found with in bunch of (you guessed it) thorns and vines!! On this cache we truly noticed that fall was in the air and that winter would be coming soon. We definitely have to start thinking about the best way to wrap up the AGT.

I have also decided that I need to get the blogging caught up, so I'm going to blog all the finds from a particular day at one time.

Until next time......

"AGT-Crawford-(WOW)" find # 47 on 10/11/08

Well, since we were going to be heading through Crawford County while traveling down for the GeoCoinFest 2008 - Pittsburgh, we decided to catch a few caches on the way. Plus, it made it so the event was find #50! Well, as the name explains, WOW. What a neat little church. It was a beautiful day, too.

As per usual, we found the cache the hard way and left the eay way. We went up the stairs figuring it was behind the church, but ended up walking down the back driveway and over to the woods behind the church. The find was relatively easy. We signed the log, stamped our passports and headed on our way.

Until next time.......
