Today, I borrowed a friends' GPS and went for a geocaching hike in the rain with my faithful quadruped companion, Tasha. When we found the cache which was hanging in a tree.....it was covered in...Camoflage Duct Tape!!! 😡

I could barely contain my excitement and headed quickly off to the hunting/fishing/outdoorsy store where much to my delight, I found that duct tape comes in both the summer green camouflage and the lovely wintery white and beige camouflage colors!!! πŸ™„

Camoflage Duct Tape!!!

It's not very good after all you found it easily enough.

What you actually found was cheap, imported, badly coloured duct tape, that duct tape collectors should avoid at all costs, so that it does not lower the tone of their collection and make them a laughing stock amongst the fellow duct-tapees.

Shanshu, you really do need to get out more....

I'd type a description, but you'll get a much better explanation here: www.geocaching.com

It's like modern Pirating... except with out the map, the compass, the ship, the peglegs, eyepatches, cannonballs, ship, crew, rum, yo-ho-ho, salty sea dogs and pieces of eight. Still got the burried treasure though!!!

Basic idea is, someone hides something (the cache) then gives out a GPS location for it and you go find it with your own GPS.

The whole thing's much more entertaining if you dress up like a pirate, make your 4X4 lok like a pirate ship, pretend your GPS is and old treasure map and say things like "Arrrrrr.... we be lookin' for the booty, Jim lad!"

EASY? 😠 You obviously were not there.

I had to hike up a steep trail, in a couple of places I had to go up on all fours.

Tasha and I came up on a pile of fresh steaming bear poop with salmonberry remains in it. Tasha does not approve of bears on the trail with us. That meant we had to cross a swift moving more-than-a-stream but less-than-a-river of rushing glacial run-off above a waterfall to stay safe.

The cold water was lovely and quite refreshing but we stayed on the not-trail and ware not dissuaded nor tempted by salmonberry patches....the thimbleberry patch almost got me, though!

I got lost, covered in mud,tumbled into a stream, accidently grabbed some devil's club while searching in the undergrowth for the cache. AND, I broke a nail!!! Just when I sat down for a bit of a cry, I looked up and there it was.......a small camoflage duct tape covered plastic cylinder nestled sweetly in the crook of a tree!!! 😲 😲 😲

I did however, recover a lovely blue-green bead from the cache and put in my little howlin' wolf in trade. I put the wolf in to honor Howlin' Wolf, he of a vocie so deep it is bottomless Jazz musician. 😡

You, adramforall may now go walk Daemon's plank!!!
