On Saturday afternoon, November 14th, my eldest daughter, Kimberly, #2 son, Christopher, and I went to Molalla to do the 1st Molalla Geocoin Challenge. Near one of the caches the street sign had Christopher's name.
We found nine of 10 caches however we were unable to find the “Images of Molalla” cache. We were there about 3:15 in the afternoon. We searched for about a half hour and then walked back to the car meaning to go into Mollala to get our geocoins as we had found all the rest of the geocaches. Two couples drove in so we went with them back to the cache area. We all searched for about 15 minutes. No cache. No code word.
We drove into Mollala to get our geocoins arriving minutes before closing. The Executive Director of the Molalla Area Chamber of Commerce told us where the cache was located. We had already searched that area. We drove back anyway and searched for another 20 minutes or so. We used hiking sticks to drive into the ground hopeing to find the large metal ammo can. It got dark so we left. And of course we never got the code word.
It was a great Geocoin Challenge. We saw several very interesting places in and around Molalla, Oregon. It would have been better if it was not so very cold though. And dark too soon.
