Congratulations to Dan on the long overdue recognition of his achieving 1,000 finds!



(Please include reminiscences of caching adventures with Dan, or mention your favorite GP hide in your log entry.)

Some of the first caches I found were GeoPierce caches. My daughter and I had a blast doing the "Our Solar System" series and I think these were the caches that really got us hooked on caching. Of course Dan has many other fabulous puzzles & hides and he may have a record for Skippy PBJ hides nationwide. (;-) Dan is also a SW metro FTF hound of long standing. In the past several months we have cached together on a few occasions. I enjoy caching with Dan and hope to do so more in the future. We always have fun! He's a great finder and has taught me many things about caching. Dan is also a person that has given back to geocaching by being a webmaster for the MNGCA. He helped develop the current website, which we all appreciate and many of us use everyday.

This cache is part of a series of silver ammo cans placed in the western part of Carver Park Reserve near Victoria, MN. These caches honor the achievement of eight cachers, who have all found 1,000+ caches and have been important members of the caching community for sometime. This cache has been registered and approved by the Three Rivers Park District. Please follow Carver Park Reserve rules and observe park hours (5am to 10pm).

Take Victoria Dr. (County Rd. 11) from Hwy 5 or Hwy 7 and turn west on Grimm Rd. Park at either the Horse Trail or Springfield Group Camp parking lot. [LINK TO MAP] This cache is easily accessible from the trail system and can be found on foot or by bicycle. The cache is also near the horse trail, which is used for cross country skiing in the winter. This cache should be findable in all seasons. A nice complement of swag has been placed with the original contents of the container. Kids and dogs are always welcome. Please re-hide the cache well, so it doesn’t get muggled.

Most important have fun and enjoy Carver Park Reserve!
