I have found some where the name of the cache was more of a clue than the hints provided. Sometimes I have the hint in my head and get to the area and the first spot that seems to match the hint gets my full attention often causing me to overlook other likely spots. That happened once this past Sunday. The hint was 'Under bark. Under a barkless tree...' Well, when I got close to the coords the first barkless tree I noticed got my full attention and I spent several minutes looking around it and scratching my head. I finally opened my eyes and noticed another bigger 'barkless' tree 15 feet away which turned out to be the correct spot. I was so focused on the first tree that I was blinded to any other possibilities. Have a great day!!! Brandon Those clues can sometimes be deceiving.

It also feels good not to be beaten! It's amazing how easy it is to get carried away by a clue that ends up making you look in the completely wrong place. Cheers Dominic. Hi Brandon,
It was a good hunt. It also feels good not to be beaten! It’s amazing how easy it is to get carried away by a clue that ends up making you look in the completely wrong place.
