Jerry & Mary's: July 2013 - Trip to Casper Wyoming

First geocache find of the trip near Julesburg Colorado

Jake at the park in Colorado

Unique camping style at the same park
Sleeping on top his van

One of many geocaches in a Sage bush

Cemetery cache

Interesting grave stone

Jake looking for direction
Actually he was waiting for traffic to pass so he
could look for the cache

One of over 100 geocaches along this National Grassland

Another one

And another one

I think you get the picture....

Geocache outside a underground missile silo

At least this wasn't another fence post

And another one

And another one in the rain

Good thing it is waterproof

Are we there yet?

Stopped in a small town for lunch and a couple caches

Back on the trail

Uh Oh. Road closed.
We missed 8 or 10 because this portion of the road
was closed for repairs.

Where is it?

Found it.

Finally out of the Grasslands

Jake found a horned toad

He wanted to take it home but I wouldn't let him

Butte in the background

Had to be careful around the Yucca plants

Surveyors benchmark next to this cache

Visited this historic site for a virtual geocache

There is a web cam on top this building that is
supposed to take a picture of you for a cache
but it is stuck pointed at the airport runways.

So we were supposed to take our own picture
in front of it.

A cache in Cheyenne

The log sheet was inside those two pieces
A "nano cache" that is magnetized to stick anywhere
They tend to be hard to find.

Another cache that requires the cacher send
an email to the cache owner with information
from the cache site.

Statue by the cache

Outfitter store in Cheyenne

The security guard showed up right when we found the
cache. That's his flashlight in the background
We showed him the cache and he was glad we
weren't vandals.

Chugwater Wyoming

We needed a picture to complete the cache

An attempt at getting us both in the picture

Another cache in Chugwater

Searching for the cache

After another one

Interesting rock formations

Going down the mountain

Stuck behind a slow moving horse trailer

We had to pull off to let the brakes cool so
Jake went after another cache just down the road

Park in Casper with a geocache in one of those holes

The cache was right next to the gate and the dog
was very loud. Jake tried to hide from him while
signing the log sheet.

Geocache just off the interstate on the way home

Another spot along the interstate

Nice rock

View up the hill

Surveyors benchmark
Geocache says to test your GPS to see how
accurate it is. Ours is 9 foot off center at this one

There was a code in this one for another geocache
that we didn't have time to do

Trying to take a picture of a Geocoin with Cheyenne
in the background. This coin we found in Casper
is supposed to go to downtown Cheyenne and then
home to Tallahassee Florida.
