During this trip I had a few great walks around the property and adjacent park. My friend Amy and I found a couple of Geocaches. If you aren't familiar with the game of Geocaching, imagine a worldwide treasure hunt, where caches are hidden and then their GPS coordinates and hints are posted on a website. Anyone (and their kids and dogs) can enjoy stashing or finding a cache, which might contain exchangeable trinkets or a "travel bug" or "geo-coin" that moves around via a succession of geocachers.The biggest treasure of all is the flora and fauna that inhabit the area. I have been told that a good sized "cinnamon" bear lives on our mountain, and I have seen a fox trot through twice already. Here I am posting a photo of the "wildlife tree" that I spoke of in an earlier page; I have not been able to capture its character in a photo, but I'll keep trying. Mt. Evans is peeking out from behind. Many songbirds, magpies, flickers and other insect-eating birds keep the tree company.
