Sacajawea finding got me a MOOSE!

I love moose.  Imagine me finding a letterbox & a moose all at once!!  I was completely elated.  And super bummed because my dang camera was in our suitcases and not up front with me!  We were on our way to Boise, and spotted him just south east of Salmon, literally 100yrds or less from where I had nabbed our first box of the weekend.

A-Maze-ing Event! (Boise, ID)


This was our official first event ever!  What a great time to have it take place in a city with so much history for us.  We had SUCH a crazy good time, and if I wasn't already hooked, I certainly am now!  Funny side story?  A fellow boxer worked at the same place I worked so many years ago.  She was hired not too long before we moved away, but we recognized each other.  Though it did take a minute to know why.  :)

Memorial Site for Don Mackey

We did not find the letterbox that was hidden here.  Spent over an hour searching- but no luck.  They've cleaned out the area a lot this summer, and Joe thinks it was cleaned up.  I'm hoping it was just "taken" by someone to log and needs to be brought back.  Loads of people on the trail (the campground was full) and we were the 3rd car at the trail head.  When we came out around 11:00 (it was 8:30 when we left home) both parking areas were full.  Even the trailer parking (we were bummed to not see any of the horses) was full!!

Emailed the box owner to show her where we looked.  I can't see how we missed it- but we want to be sure!

Finally found & the boxers go wild!

Cowboy Joe & Mountain Sue get a little crazy after finding a box we've searched for over 6 times.
