Where else? It's at The Forks. An all-season cache.
No climbing involved!

The cache started as an Altoids container. It's been a small Loc-n-Loc several times but it's an Altoids container again.

This is our 11th cache. Enjoy the hunt.

PLEASE be sure to rehide the cache in it's original position (out of sight) so that it does not get easily muggled.

Wandered by with Sean and Widget, who hadn't found the cache yet (and appear to have not logged it yet either). They didn't have their GPS, so I led them to the vicinity and watched them fight for it ToungeOut.

Little chilly out today, but decided to give this a go with another one at the forks. Started off by walking along the underside of the bridge, thinking it'd be something in the bushes there or something. Shortly thereafter, I zoomed in a bit more on the GPS and discovered that it seemed to be "in the water" so to speak. Well, doesn't exactly take a genius to figure that it must be on the only thing above the water at that point ToungeOut. Another quick walk around and I found myself at the top.
EHEHEHEHEHE! Spent a few minutes playing with that scale model of the bridge. Bridge go up, bridge go down. Bridge go up, bridge go down. Never really went near this bridge before. Always kinda assumed it was (still currently) for cars or a train or something. Mental note... when it's warmer, I should adventure around there a little more, maybe see what's on the other side of the bridge. But yeah... cold and windy, so I passed on that today.
