If any of you enjoyed Seldon's Gaunlet multicache from 2008, you had better check this one out.. This adventure was worth the effort. I can't say much without ruining the fun for you but one thing I will say is that this one does NOT require you to drive around 50 miles like the last one.

If there is to be a Minnesota Cache-Of-The-Year, this is it. |

I recently completed this cache, and I must say it is the best cache I have ever done.
It is a great mix of good hiking, QUALITY caches, and stages not too difficult to complete.
I would also suggest that you do this one with a caching friend for safety and fun. |

It's true, "Seldon's 2010 Senses Census" is one great cache. Not only are the various stages unbelievably creative, it's also a great hike. The landscape and the Cannon River are beautiful.
Put this cache on your list. Better yet, load it to your GPS right now, grab a friend and get on it!

| Will try it as it is close to home. I must say that after completing the 2008 one, I wondered what all the gushing was about. For something a crew must have worked on , it was rather basic. |

| Glad to see it's back in operation! I may try to go back down there yet this fall to pick it up. |

Couldn't find user "jacknsue" on geocaching.com so I could not determine your experience level. But the deal is, after you've cached a while, you'll find there are only so many medicine bottles in rotten stumps that are exciting. You will begin to crave caches like this. I suspect you have not yet found enough totally boring caches to fully appreciate the Seldon challenge. I loved the engineering and adventure of the 2008 cache and thought the 2010 version was even better.. by a mile.
Then again, I could be completely misreading your comment. |

| Two of the most interesting caches have been "A Strange Little Park" and I think the name is "In the Wide Open". Very clever camo. ZoeJam's Yesteryear and "Area 51" are rather challenging also. |

| Jacknsue Could you post some GC numbers for those so I can check them out. I looked at your found caches history, but could only find Area51 (disabled due to flood) |
