Geocaching on the Luce Line

We placed two new geocaches on the Luce Line Trail today. One is named, A Good Time on the Luce Line. And the other is Sugar & Spice. A Good time on the Luce Line is a plastic coffee can, filled with decent swag; a mini flashlight, a tape measure-key chain, scary teeth with fake blood, and other cool stuff. There's plenty of room for trade items and trackables. On the left of the photo, you can see the remnants of the tree in which we placed the cache. (Click any photo to enlarge) We'll probably have to go back out in a few weeks to adjust the cache because the middle of the stump was filled with two feet of snow. Although it's only 30 feet or so off the trail, it might get a little nasty in the summer. I ran into quite a bit of wild rose on my way in there. Lots of thorns.

Sugar & Spice was also placed in a downed tree stump. Except Sugar & Spice is not as sweet as one would expect. You may remember reading my previous post about the micro in the rubber spider? Well my friends, that is Sugar & Spice.
I had to do a little work on it to get the cache container to stay put, but plastic epoxy seems to work wonders. To the left, you can see the Luce Line in snow. This is actually the horse path that parallels the bike path and hiking trail, up and to the left. This time of year they are both used primarily for snowmobiles. The broken stump right next to the trail is where Sugar & Spice is waiting for some hapless geocachers to come looking.

On the right here, is a close up of the cache container at Sugar & Spice. Although the photo doesn't show it, the spider is down in a recessed hole in the stump. We covered it with a flat piece of bark. Imagine when somebody lifts that bark and sees this!

It will take a couple of days for me to get the page on geocaching.com completed, and get it published.
