"AGT-Forest-Guitonville Road Cache" find # 65 on 10/19/08
This was a little bit of a walk, but a relatively quick find. The walk was through lots of weeds. I don't know the technical names for them, but the ones that stick to you. We both were trying to brush them off us before getting back in the car.
The walk wasn't too bad. I was quite glad we went to the left rather than the right as it was quite the hill that way. There was a little hill, but nothing too bad!
Well, again, we still had one more to complete yet today, so we did what we had to do and moved on.
Until next time..........

"AGT-Forest-Dedication" find # 64 on 10/19/08
Boy, this was a heck of a find. The name tells it all as it took serious dedication to find this. We were happy that we were able to drive up closer than the off season 1.06 mile hike in.
We were able to drive in so that we were within about a half mile of the cache. Once we got to ground zero, we spent at least a half hour to 45 minutes searching for the cache. J finally got to the right place where he found the cache under the rock that was under all the leaves!!
Well, we still had a couple more caches to find and daylight was burning, so we stamped the passports and moved on.

"AGT-Clarion-Helen Furnace Cache" find #63 on 10/19/08
What a cool cache location. Even though we were running short on time, we did spend a little time exploring the furnace. J really enjoyed the history and took many pictures while N found the cache.
After taking an unnecessary hike up the hill, the cache was located only about half way up the hill. We grabbed a TB from the cache to drop somewhere else. We did the typical cache stuff and moved on. As we left, a van pulled in that also seemed to be caching!!

"AGT-Clarion-Paved Trail" find #62 on 10/19/08
This was a nice little walk on a mostly paved trail. Although to actually get the cache, you had to go off the paved area. We really enjoyed this little walk, but since we were trying to complete so many caches in one day, we couldn't spend as much time as we would have like in the Cook Forest State Park.
Well, we still had 4 more caches to find yet today, so we signed the log and what not, and moved along.

"AGT-Clarion-Park with a purpose" find # 61 on 10/19/08
The seventh find of the day was not as quick as we would like, but we were eventually successful. Hi nicely within a large area of little bushes, this one took a while. Especially since the GPS would jump around like crazy. Eventually J was able to narrow it down and we found the cache. Since daylight was burning and we still had several caches yet to find, we signed the log, stamped our passports, left some goodies, and moved along.

"AGT-Clarion-Lost But Not Forgotten" find #60 on 10/19/08
Without even reading the description for this one, it was easy to guess this cache would be in an old cemetery. What a nice, quiet resting area. At the top of a little hill this beautiful little cemetery sits, and we felt so at peace as we looked for the cache. As the sun shone through the trees and the cool breeze of autumn blew, we quickly found the cache.
Since the cache was not all that well hidden, J took the extra steps to make sure the next cacher would not find as easy and would have more time to enjoy the serene quiet of this place. After successfully hiding the cache, it was time to leave and move on to the next cache. Until next time.......

"AGT-Clarion-Are you Game?" find #59 on 10/19/08
This was a nice walk, albeit a little muddy, on PA State Game Lands. As per usual, trying to get there directly, we wondered off the beaten path a little, but we ended up no worse for the wear. On the way out, we took a slightly different path that brought us out on the road, rather than in the parking area. Fortunately, it wasn't too far from the car.
Since we were on a mission to find 12 caches today, we quickly headed on to the next cache. Until next time........

"AGT-Clarion-Quiet in N. Clarion Co." find # 58 on 10/19/08
OK, so I was planning on getting those finds all caught up and then I didn't!! Well, it's been a busy few weeks and I'm now going to try in Earnest in getting the finds all caught up. The really sad part is that I'm starting to lose track in my mind of all the individual finds!! I'll do my best in writing about them!!
So, after searching through all the pictures from this find and re-reading the description of the cache, my memory is slowing coming back. This relatively quick little find was near a small country cemetery (I believe) that has a little area that is great for policemen to sit and watch for speeders. We couldn't have picked a nicer day to work on two counties of the AGT!!
On to the next cache. Until next time........

"AGT-Forest-Going Fishing" find # 57 on 10/19/08
This was a find that you definitely had to watch for muggles. It is right out there in the open, so to speak. The sights were quite beautiful on this fine autumn day. Many people were pulling in and out of the parking lot. Once we located the cache, we went down the hill out of sight to sign the log and stamp our passport.
Well, we now have Forest County half way done. Our next several caches will be in Clarion County and then we'll hit the rest of Forest County on our way back through. Until next time......

"AGT-Forest-Hickory Hunt" find #56 on 10/19/08
Our second find of the day went OK. It was near a little store out in the Country. Per usual, we went in the wrong way. After wandering through this small wooded area and trying to make our way through all the thorns and prickers, we found the cache. If we would have come through the little field, we would have only needed to walk into the wooded area about 10 feet!! Oh well, it's par for the course. It's like those hunting dogs that get a on a trail and nothing can stop them. We get following the GPS and don't stop to look for a better way.
Well, we needed to get heading on if we were going to hit all twelve finds for the day!! Until next time........
