- Found it
How could I possibly resist the lure of a genuine 50 caliber ammo box tucked away in a section of fine open woods?!? The answer is, I can’t. Or at least couldn’t any longer. So with Chicky at my side, we hit the parking coords and with a poopie-slurping grin on my face, delved head-first into these beautiful woods. What can I say, this is a true gem. I had no idea this section of State Lands existed, so I had to comment the entire trip as to how nice a job the trail maintenance folks did in putting this together for my leisure and general enjoyment.<br />
<br />
We arrived at the first leg, and the coords were perfect for us which lead to a very quick find. Of course that was just the start, as we sort of got turned around and didn’t know which way we had come from after leaving the trail. The GPS was bouncing and totally useless, but eventually we got our bearings and got back on track. Haha.<br />
<br />
The second leg was in another great spot, and again a quick find. It looks like an animal has been gnawing on this one, but the container is still in decent shape and everything inside was dry. Damn animals…what about cammo duck tape is appetizing? Anyhoo…<br />
<br />
We took a bit of a circuitous route to the final, but without problems found the appropriate trail and soon we were snooping around for this very well hidden ammo box. Oh the joy, the rapture, the tears of giddiness. I love me a nice ammo can multi box finish. So I signed the log and rehid very well so future finders will have as much fun as I did in snooping around.<br />
<br />
Thanks SB7 for this dandy hike in a beautiful place ending with an ammo can that I could caress and love as my own. This was our favorite of the day for sure!<br />

PS: Oh yeah, we also picked up the Geokritter or whatever these them thar things are called. Haha.
