Thanks George, that helps. If the weather will allow I may try to stop there on my way to Moonshine next year.. And yes that would be on the way to moonshine from NH, I plan to take the long way..

There you go, Dave. Another shortcut to Moonshine.
Yep, I have never had the chance to ride coast to coast and moonshine just seemed like a great reason. LOL
Terry would love that attitude.

I hope to finally get there while out on my SCMA Top 15 MC Roads Challenge ride this summer. The Dugway isn't one of the roads, but I've actually added several so it will be the SCME Top 15 plus another dozen or so I added like the Dugway. Sure hope I can find the memorial!

That would be a great stop...
Mellow et al:
Am just reading this thread, and discovered a whole new part of this Board.
I rode Push Mountain Road a few weeks ago, and wish I knew there was a memorial of sorts to stop at, and this got me thinking.
I am one of 'those' real life GeoCachers out there, and am wondering if it may be of value to take these memorial spots, and create real GeoCaches for them. it would allow us to monitor the status of the spots better, maintain them when necessary, and find them all in one fell swoop. I could create a series of ST_Owners memorial caches, as long as I had a contact for maintenance. I already have a memorial Geocaching coin out there for my brother, and would be happy to build these.
i think this is a great concept, and would love to know the thoughts of others on the Board.

Thanks for the proposal but I think the best way for us to remember those that have gone before us is to continue riding, anywhere.. The one we did for Putt includes ALL those that have gone before and rather than have 100's of little places, I think it means more to have that one location that is not some place you get to all the time or gets a lot of traffic, so when you do get a chance to get there, it's something special.
Understood - my thinking is it would be easier to find for those of us who haven't followed the original threads. today was the first i heard of Moki's cannister and Putts etc.

If you need the exact location of various memorials...(once you know they exist) just make a post asking. Many of us have coordinates, photos, etc...

George, If you do, I'm in. Seneca is 50 miles from my doorstep. I was in the Walhalla area on SC 28 Saturday.
You should do this.

Folks, stopped at the Moki yesterday afternoon. Assume no one has actually replaced the old package yet as I found nothing there. I don't recall anyone mentioning it while at NatSTOC either. Given I promised to do something and I live much closer than most, guess It'll be the first trip on my DRZ. Wanna ride thru Garden of the Gods again, avoided yesterday due to major rain in the area for several days.
Saw one big truck, not as big as the ones Mac 'n Carole saw last year. Also saw two hikers, first I'd ever seen. Guy in the red shirt stopped and talked for a minute, he had a ride waiting for him at the top. Just waved at the second guy as I rode by.
Anyone who has items to add to a package, send'em to me at:

BTW, stopped at Delgadillo's Snow Cap yesterday and added a Moonshine STicker to the collection.

If it just keeps disappearing.. I don't see the point.. we can just show up in that spot and that's that... IMO, that's the best memorial anyway.
Use a ziplock instead of something expensive...
Thinking about Putt and Terry yesterday. I sure miss the daily contributions they made here.

It was all fine there in September 2012 when Uncle Larry and me stopped by and signed the new book that Joe put there after the first box was missing.
