And a second continent has fallen to my will. Mwahahahahaha! But... yeah, megalomania aside, quite a nice conquista. I actually really liked the fact that it only needed four micro-finds in order to find the finale. Doesn't seem like quite as daunting a task. As in, when I got the first one, I was like "eh, only three more... shouldn't be a problem". You get the idea.
But I was a little worried about the cache when I started driving towards the general vicinity of it. In the sorta vague kinda area, there was a ton of construction vehicles doing stuff. When I actually got closer, I discovered that said construction vehicles must have been over 500m from the cache site. No problems. There is however several fairly obvious geopaths leading up to the cache (well... from 15 feet away from the cache... and if you're that close as is, you'd be hard-pressed to miss it anyway ). Well... a winter and a spring should take care of that and put it back to normal. That's the good thing about this particular "variety" of geopath. It'll be completely rebuilt next year.
On a side-note... with the 'fake' coordinates on the cache page... man, who knew that the town of 'Riverton' was so close to such a zeroing of coordinates. They could have the logo of "Riverton - the town that equals next to zero"... although that doesn't exactly make it sound like the greatest town to visit .
Although, I HIGHLY recommend this cache (well, after obtaining the final coordinates) for anyone with kids. TONS of stuff in the cache. And cool, awesome stuff too! I REALLY wish I had better swag with me to trade, otherwise I'd have gotten me some toys to play with at work .
