Hey geocachers
It is that time of year for another beautiful fall day on the St Croix. We are doing another Million Shades of Autumn event.
I just got approval to put some caches out on Greenberg Island. All you that love 5 star rated terrain caches come on out. I am hoping that one of them will be a permanent cache.
The park is giving us use of 2 of their canoes and I can bring 3. They have rentals and there is always BYOC and BYOK.

Thanks, Dances. I would have more luck writing in Cyrillic.

4.5/2
4.5/4

The approval came through for the Greenberg Island cache. Sorry Bart, I wanted to go 3.5-5 but in good conscience I could only go 2.5-5.

2010 Million Shades of Autumn
Mark your calendars and reserve your cabins for September 25th and 26th 2010.

Thanks all that attended we had 47 geocachers sign the log and over 200 park visitors give caching a try.
Thanks to Geobusters that where an amazing help! They are going to co-host with me next year. Styrene and mnwild11 got there early on Saturday and helped me set setup! Kimmers is a great geoteacher and kept me in line when my wife was not around. X51hz made both days and helped everywhere I needed something. Meralgia provided a bunch of her unique caches. Thanks to my brother-in-law that got my van open when I locked the keys in and the unknown campers that turned in my lost gps.
The staff at William O'Brien was great support.


See you next year!

Don't forget the fish and turtles that helped you to shore when you went "wadeing".
