The Balk’s made KVR HILO (GC145QH ) his 1000th find on Sunday, my oldest boy and I were lucky enough to be able to accompany him along on his hike to the milestone.
What a nice multistage series that leads you around through the valley, I can tell alot of work went into this one and it isn’t as bad as I thought it would be.
Congrats The Balk’s on your milestone!!

You should try it in late June or early July. If the bugs don’t get you, the swamp or cliffs will. 😈 8)

Congrats on the 1000! I thought about coming over to join you on the hike, but just too much to do in preparation for the picnic in a couple of weeks. HILO is definitely on my short-term radar.

Congratulations on taking on this challenging cache. Definately one of my top 5 caches to date as it provides a great variety. Great job on making it to 1000 which will definately be memorable for a number of reasons.

Congrats on reaching 1000 smileys!
I love the cache you chose for your milestone. My group picked a hot (mid 80’s) sticky day at the end of June to complete this hike. I bet the weather on Sunday was perfect for finding this cache.
