Made his 1,000th find:
“Schaar's Bluff: The South (or East) End” on November 2,
2008.
Congratulations to Brad on the long overdue recognition of
his achieving 1,000 finds!

reminiscences of caching adventures with Brad, or mention your
favorite MNBrad hide in your log
entry.)
As I planned this series of tribute
caches in Carver Park Reserve I was only looking at cachers from
the SW Metro area. But as I compiled my list I came across
MinnesotaBrad’s name and was surprised to see that no one had ever
placed a tribute cache for him. I don't know Brad real well, but we
have cached together at a few events and I had seen him frequently
at WNC. I knew from these times that he was a well liked and
respected guy and we always had fun caching when Brad was along. I
have since realized all the work that Brad has done for MNGCA and
was glad to read that he was recently elected President. For
purposes of this series of tribute caches the Southwest metro
border had to grow far enough Northeast to include Brad's house in
Brooklyn Center. (;-)
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!
