About
Located on the Olympic Peninsula we have miles of water ways, trails, small communities and parks to hide and seek caches. The local caching community is quite active.
Although some what new to the game, we quickly became "cache addicts". Getting a Garmin Vista cx in July of 2007 spurred a summer of caching fun for us.
The products shipped off this site are packaged and shipped by 2 young entrepreneurs ages 9 and 10. Of course they have some over site.
