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

The cacher formerly known as “dachebo” has always been “Dances With Beehives” to me. When I first started caching I didn’t know a lot of cachers, so I learned from their hides. I learned a lot from Dave’s hides, which are almost always challenging. Usually he takes you on a nice walk through a beautiful area you never knew existed. Unless it’s a puzzle cache in which case he leaves you chained to your desktop bewildered for hours. (;-) A few years back Dave frequently attended caching events and still does on occasion. Dave and I have only met a few times, usually on FTF runs. All I know is he’s a real nice guy and probably has forgotten more about caching then I have learned. I know he has the respect of all the veteran cachers out there and even though I don't know him well, I’m glad I could do him this honor.

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!
