Don't know either of you, but congratulations and thanks to you both!

We hiked the mile to the Fisher Point Trail cache <

wild flowers, several lizards along the way, and big pine trees.

However, it's a six-mile hike to Fisher Point itself.  To go there, you
might want to drive to the parking area that's a half-mile from the point
and hike/roll.  The point is at the top of some granite cliffs that overlook
a lovely little valley and miles and miles of forest.  Fisher Point is at
N35 09.112 W111 35.735; the parking area at N35 09.190 W111 35.752.

Lockett Meadow is always beautiful, too.  I see the cache there has been
archived < http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?wp=GC90CB >,
it's a great place.

We had no trouble getting to any of these places in the Mighty RAV, so your
truck should drive in easily.
