Sorry, Eric, but on top of mystery clues, that was just too tempting.
You'll have to be 7th to visit, if Dan and Melissa aren't already
half-way up the trail! What better way to invite trouble than to drag
my 4 kids out in 90 degree/90 percent weather on an iffy treasure
hunt with huge thunderboomers threatening? Fortunately, the red caps
were at the suggested bearings and the thermocline was marvelously
refreshing.
Stan and Angus (and Murray?), that was a terrific job! I do have to
mention, though, that as a born and bred San Franciscan, "Bear Cave"
has ***other*** furry cultural connotations that add a pleasantly
edgy mystery to your already intriguing clues (if you're not "in,"
just try a Yahoo search on bear cave and see what hits). Wonderful
great fun puzzling excellent clues, though! And I loved your terrific
hand-cut stamp! Do you mind if I email it to Tom to insert into the
online clue page?

Looks like the Ram has beat us again. We ran out to the Glacial Park box
tonight, as soon as we saw it posted, but somehow the Ram found it a week
before us :(
Unfortunately we will probably have the find the Bear Cave after the Ram as
well. Work is busy this time of year and we will be heading north to find
some of the New Hampshire boxes this weekend. Can't wait to find the
Monadnock Box and the others nearby!!
Looking forward to your next boxes

well, i am glad that the Drew clan has found one that they didn't put out
again! What a treat that must have been... unfortunately, i had some "things"
to do so i wasn't able to get out like i wanted but oh well. So, sorry if i
sounded arrogant and all and i'm sitting here eating crow and the whole nine
yards.
Melissa and Dan.... honestly, i stumbled onto that one, REALLY! But anyway...
did you guys do the two Norwich boxes yet? I liked the start of the notable
sewer pipe series. Cool stamp at Uncas Leap too Jay!
Watch for the Ram....
(look, i finally counted my stamps!)
