For those of you who don't know, Isisfan is one of the members of Team Pink, which is loosely comprised of lots of estrogen laden cachers who wear a LOT of pink. (we attract a considerable amount of muggle attention.)

With that in mind, CubanShamrock and I present the following puzzle:

Solved this a very long time ago, happy to find that the effort was not in vain. Camo job on the container just about put my eyes out, well worth the climb. TFTC

This is my five year old's first mystery cache! She is sooo proud of herself as am I. We discovered this area on our way home from grandmas a couple of weeks ago. We went straight to the computer when we got home to check out the caches in the area. Right away she yelled "there's a mystery cache out there!" She got even more excited when I clicked on it and it had her favorite color in the name! Then to top it off she could help with the questions! When we got out here all the other caches that I thought I had loaded on the gpsr weren't there for some reason. Luckily the coords for this were still there. I started to doubt that we were on the right track about half way after leaving the trail... but she wouldn't let me quit until we made the find! So proud... sorry for the long rant. We would award this 10 fav points if we could!! Thank you for all the fun, exercise and learning! We traded swag and signed the log! Thanks again!

@15:33:00 #26863 Killian33 and I (and all 3 of her geo-hounds) went to Pine to find a few caches. We were surprised at how little snow there was there. TFTC
