Our week in Alamo, NV went by
quickly. Getting out geocaching led me
to some interesting places. I did have a
couple of part days doing the ET Highway caches but it quickly started to feel
like work, getting ten caches every sixteen minutes. I decided I much prefer the back roads and
some of the ones you have to hike in to.
I really enjoyed one called Bucky’s Point that I did on Monday. It was about one kilometer walking each way
and the scenery was really neat. Since
it would appear most people come to this area to make large numbers of finds,
nobody had visited this cache since November of 2011.
Today, we moved down the road and
are spending two nights at North Ranch at Congress, AZ. This is an Escapees RV Club park and I took
the opportunity to join Escapees today.
I have been considering joining them for years and by doing so today
saved half of our membership fee with two nights savings. We are now within about three hours of our
home base at Caliente in Florence, AZ so hopefully that will be an easy drive
on Friday.
The cache is beyond the pointy little hill just to the left of the car
On top of the pointy hill looking back to the car that is that little bright spot at the bottom of the road. You'll have to click on the picture to enlarge it enough to see, likely.
What I was walking alongside of, looking back
And looking ahead
The little town of Alamo, NV from Bucky's Point
And from down in the valley looking back up to where I was. That's Bucky's Point under the word cache. The road went up the valley behind the cache then climbed way up the back side of the mountain.
Welcome to the escapees! The last 2 parks we have stayed at were 15 o/o off for escapees. Glad to hear you are in the sunny climate!
