Hiking and geocaching in Round Valley

We’ve been hiking with Chase (he is home-schooled) after he finishes his schoolwork. This gives his older siblings a quieter house in which to complete their studies. Today we went to Round Valley and I loaded up the GPSr with a bunch of geocaches to add some variety to our hiking. We completed the series of eight Ridge Run caches. As the name implies, we did a bit of climbing up the ridge line. Altogether we found 11 caches, hiked a little over 5 miles, and really enjoyed ourselves. Happened to see a well fed coyote—we interrupted its ground-squirrel hunting.
