Marked for life


I know it's geeky, but it's a fun and outdoorsy thing to do, and that's geocaching.
I've been poking away at the ground for a couple of years now. I recently decided to place a couple of caches around Castle Rock. I found a couple of places that are 'hidden' right in town that are pretty cool. One has a bunch of outdoor artwork and a hidden picnic bench, the other has a great view of the town. Take a look.
Old Glory Overlook
The Forgotten Picnic
Both caches are watertight plastic containers wrapped in camo tape, well hidden. It's pretty neat knowing these things will (hopefully) be there forever. It's also interesting the the detrius and flotsam that occupies these things, little trinkets and objects from everywhere.
