The Balk’s go Hi and Lo for 1000

[kc9gbo]

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.

Excellent job on #1000, The Balks! Great to have others along to help you with the find and the celebration. Congrats!

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 the K, and the memorable find! The logs and gallery convinced me to add it to my wish list. 😉

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.

That will always be one of our favorite caches, a very worthy milestone choice. Congrats, Nate!
