[GeoSTL] Re: Weekend

Well I misread the previous messages in this thread and thought that you guys were going on Saturday morning instead of Sunday. When no one showed up by 9:30 I decided to walk. It was a nice hot walk, I started walk at 10:00. I walked to Gaberet Island Cache first and bushwacked to River Rat from there by following the river. (I did not follow the mapped route). I saw more wildlife on that mile and half bushwack than I have seen on any caches. The bushwack is a little challenging at times but enjoyable.

Almost all the HIKING is in the sun. Both caches are in the shade. River
Rat was hide where it is because I was hot and that was the first shade with
a view of the river.
