Three Fun Geocaches in the Woods

Today we did 12 geocaches in Rockford, Illinois, but my 3 favorites were the ones we did in the wooded sections of Alpine Park.

The first one was called "Alpine Hill View"  GC2067P.  We had to cross a small stream and climb up a hill to find the cache.....





The second one was called "Alpine Park" GC2HFKH and was my favorite cache of the day because of the trail we had to hike up ...



and down.....



 and then the cliff's we had to climb up and down in order to find the cache....






Do you see the cache??




Then the last one at Alpine Park was called "Nature's Bridge" GC26HPP.  To get to this one, we had to hike up an almost dry creek bed....



 and across a series of natural bridges.....
 



Locate the cache.......



And then hike back out.....





Alpine Park was just beautiful and it was a perfect day to be out hiking and geocaching.

  1. Have I really been away so long? Where does my time go? I've got a lot to catch up on. Totally cute that you and your daughter were both in purple (even if you didn't mean to). Looks like such a beautiful area for a hike.

  3. Looks like the perfect day afield! I love the fun pictures you guys take. All the neat angles and interesting things too. I so badly want to get out geocaching but right now, we are so busy I'm call a lawn service to do my grass! Crazy!
