The name of this cache, kwit’shadie, is the Chinook word for rabbit. Since I live in Scappoose (the Chinook word for gravelly plain), I thought it would be fun to name my caches in Chinook. This is my 15th hide, celebrating my 150th find.The Crown Zellerbach trail was once a logging road and before that, a logging railroad. Today it is a linear county park. It is a rails-to-trails project that is progressing very slowly in my opinion, but it is a very welcome project.
This is my 5th letterbox cache. I only just became interested in letter boxing earlier this year (2012), and there are so few in this area that I decided right away that I wanted to start hiding a few. Remember: letterboxes include stamps, which are not trade items. I placed the stamp in a labeled bag. I placed the SWAG in another labeled bag, so you shouldn't get them mixed up
Clue:
Cachers report problems with their GPS jumping around a bit due to the tree cover, so here is the clue from the letterbox listing that should help you zero in on the cache.
- Along the south (right) side of the trail there appears to be an old road or path which goes up the hill. It is up this path where I hid the cache...
