Congratulations, you've found our Geocache!
This was hidden by our family on July 25, 2001. It is our first cache we have hidden. We have been up this peak many times. We have also found other caches. Our family put this cache together, thanks for coming! My name is Austin.
When you fill out your own log sheet in this book make sure that you write your name, date, difficulty, what camera you use, what frame you took your picture on, and what you put in the stash. Also you can put additional comments.
You are only allowed to take the items in the bags marked "trade", or not in a bag.
Please don't take the aspirin, band-aids, and camera.
