293 - Mammoths Like Muskies
Co Hwy K, Boulder Junction, WI, US
This mammoth has wandered way North looking for muskellunge fish, or Muskies as the locals call them! Boulder Junction WI is the muskie capital of the world, so he decided to start his adventure here. This tag is in a small plastic container at the foot of a large wooden sign with a muskie on it, (the sign with church information on it) behind a rock. Easy parking right by the sign.

Great! I made the find but almost felt like it was going to a 0 for 2 in the last couple of weeks. I decided i was going to take the morning off to extend the 4th of July weekend with a drive to Blue Jay for the elusive tag. I took the beautiful hour drive up to the mountains through Green Valley making my way to GZ. I took a quick peek for something noticeable but found nothing. I then started feeling around and felt what I was seeking for, a baggie with the tag!!! Damn! Glad it was there! My last run for the tag was unsuccessful. The tag was missing but instead found a piece of an eraser in a baggie instead. Not this time!!! Thanks for the placement!!! Awesome!!

I was late for work this morning. Per my usual I checked my email. There happened to be a new tag placed it seems. I'm always a day late and a dollar short. I figured for grins I would see where it was that. Waller? I know exactly where that at and it's only 20 minutes away from home. That and it's on my way to work. I dressed as quickly as I could, jumped in my trusty Jeep and away we went. These are so exciting. I kept refreshing the map hoping that nobody had gotten here before me. I looked around a bit and wondered where the rock garden could be. Then my GPS caught up and I said ... Ah, ha!!! There it was. How exciting!!! I love the rock and the coin is so cool. I can't wait to get the matching piece. What a wonderful morning this has been. And to think I was just going to sleep in!!!! Thanks to the hider! <3 Great placement. I will paint a rock and add to the garden.

Even Mammoths deserve a day to be pampered....all that trudging around, the kids demanding your attention while quarantined, no opposable thumbs, how is a mammoth to keep their tusks shiny?
A spa day of course!
Here we see our heroine socially distancing and waiting outside for her appointment.
But then the time is delayed and it gets hot outside(all that heat does the fur no good!)....so she crawls under the cover to grab a quick nap - perhaps you can catch her before she departs!

Just learned about Snag The Tag yesterday. Signed up for alerts. Heard my telltale Geocaching email notification sound this morning. Looked at my phone assuming it was a new cache or someone had found one of my hides....nope....it was a new Snag The Tag. "SERIOUSLY!! NO WAY!!" I exclaimed. I jumped off the couch, dragged a brush through my hair, got dressed, grabbed a protein bar, a drink and headed out the door. 30 minutes...will I make it first. Hey lady get out of my way! Man, another red light....come on!! I finally arrived. I could see some signs that a person had been there recently and my heart sank. I had to be sure and look for myself. Ok,what side...no not there...grab a stick...move some leaves...no....ok...one more look...OH MY GOODNESS...I SEE IT!! I am sooo excited. Thank you!! (Kikiisme is my Geocaching name)

Made the trip from Kalamazoo hoping it was still here. After a nice walk to the beach in the rain and a somewhat crowded beach, I found it after a few minutes. Thanks for placing one so close to home. An hour drive is so much better than a 3-4 hour drive.

Loader Ct, Benton City, WA, US
I found this little trail and decided to walk the path. I came up to the blue bench and had a rest. On my right side there were 3 stumps. I decided to hang out by the first one hiding in the tree. This is a popular walking trail and if you keep going you will find a neat earth markers called "Uranus".

Lakeshore Dr, Fennville, MI, US
A relatively quiet park.... on weekdays. Please be aware...you must attempt this from the beach! The North stairs are the only beach access point....but there is major erosion at the bottom. You MUST go down to the beach level after you reach the last wooden step and there's not an official way down. There's a couple options that aren't too bad to get down but if you have mobility issues of any kind this is not a good idea for you.

Petrie Ln, Lyndonville, NY, US
Got to the location and started looking for the tag. A couple showed up and started taking pictures of the headstones. They left and I kept searching. Another car showed up and it was sassy octopus. We signed into the cache together and kept looking for the tag. I moved a dead piece of wood and she spotted the tag. Being the gentleman that I am, I told her that she can have it. She told me that since I moved the dead wood I can take the tag. Asked if she was sure. We talked for a little bit and went out different ways.

Where better to find a Mammoth than a Dinosaur Store.
No need to stop in the store but you are this close, why not?
Great place to play and cool off.

A friend and I were on a road trip in the area and made the journey to find this tag upon hearing it hadn't been claimed for two days. We found it and were treated with a stunning view of the mountains above and the river below.

Heard about this game and have been looking for one of these Woolies within a reasonable driving distance of Tucson. This is one of my favorite state parks at the foot of the beautiful Whetstone mountains. Wasn't sure what to expect when I pulled up. The coordinates were right on for this but it took some scrounging around to make the find. The traffic going into the park was looking at me a little crazy. Finally peered into the correct spot and the coveted Mammoth was mine. Success! Thanks to whoever placed this for me to find. :)

The mammoth wandered to this scenic spot and hid under a rock next to a metal fencepost. Getting kinda lonely. Who is going to come out here to pick him up?
