So, this is so much fun. After bagging my first cache on South Peak, Sean and I headed over to the summit of Moosilauke for cache number 2: Rusty’s Bivouac

I’m addicted. Cache 2 was quite a challenge as well. However, after decrypting the clue Sean and I successfully found Rusty’s Bivouac, only after finding someone else’s lavatory of convenience. Here, Sean and I found more travel bugs. After vowing to become an avid GeoCacher, sean took a travel bug from this cache with intentions of finding a new home for it in his home state of Connecticut.

Sean and I had a blast on this trip and here are the photos to prove it. CAUTION to fellow GeoCachers, there are spoilers in these photos.

OK, so 4 days after receiving my GPS receiver and 3 days after becoming a member of Geocaching.com I have found my first GeoCache: South Peek

As expected, I absolutely love this “sport” already. Long time backpacking partner, Sean Lawless and I planned an overnight trip up and down and around Mt. Moosilauke in New Hampshire. I found that there were at least two caches hidden along our proposed path. The first was somewhere atop our first summit of South Peak. The cache was not easy to find. However, I believe that had as much to do with my unfamiliarity with the new GPS receiver as the craftyness of the cache hiders. Inside this cache, we found what is known as a Travel Bug. After returning home I tracked the origin of this bug all the way from Oregon.
