This hide has a little bit of everything -- an APE tag, a quiet road in Justin Texas, railroad tracks in the vicinity so you may spot a passing train, and a geocache nearby in the cemetery to the north!
Simple park and grab on the third pole from the south on the guardrail - shouldn't give you any trouble with snagging this APE!


WA-507, Rainier, WA, US
What a fun way to start a Thanksgiving with a Ape tag. Thanks. Bunch.


WA-507, Rainier, WA, US
Dedicated in August 2007, this park recognizes many of the Veterans who have served our community. The tag can be found under the rock at the south end of the wall.


25 Ave SE, Manchester Industrial, Calgary, AB, CA
The ape wanted to find shelter in the nearby tunnel but learned that it was just too busy with all the traffic, he found this beautiful park but happened to fall in between the crack.


E Larch St, Othello, WA, US
Saw this one was available last night still but my husband didn’t want to make the drive . Luckily it was still here when we woke up so jumped in the car and drove over an hour. Luckily it was still there when we finally pulled in and quickly made the find!


OR-126 BUS, Springfield, OR, US
I’ve been watching for an eight take to pop close to me. This must be the day to find the ape in the jungle of fern! Thank you to the hider! 🦍


OR-126 BUS, Springfield, OR, US
This Ape wanted some transportation. Fancy Bus stop in Eugene. Look at the fern, be discreet. Parking in the lot behind the bus stop.


VT-119, Hinsdale, NH, US
I had the day off so I decided to take the 3hr drive from Plymouth Ma to see if I could Snag this Tag. Since you are reading this you know I was successful. Found it. Thanks for hiding it.


Government Way, Spokane, WA, US
I saw this in the morning by a fluke looking for my work email. So after throwing some clothes on and battling the drive in the snow (and seeing an accident right when I got to the main road) I was able to get to the location in untouched snow. I am stoaked to be able to grab this after searching every nook and crack around the coordinates. It is our first Spot the Ape and couldn't be more stoaked seeing this is the first one in Spokane posted. So stoked to get this other half!!!


Government Way, Spokane, WA, US
This tag is hidden in a Spanish American War Cannon, take a minute to read the memorial and reflect on our past. Please respect this Memorial Terrace, tag is accessible at all hours.


E Larch St, Othello, WA, US
Don't "knuckle" under with the stress of trying to find this tag! It's pretty easy to locate on this old caboose. (There's also a Geocache nearby) Good luck!!


VT-119, Hinsdale, NH, US
The APE took a road trip to Vermont, specifically Brattleboro, and decided they wanted to also go to New Hampshire. The APE took a rest by a tree with a NO Camping sign, so a quick rest and then onto more exploring.....


N Durango Dr, Las Vegas, NV, US
This was an awesome snag! Found with lovesSmiles. This statue was pretty cool!


152nd Pl SE, Bothell, WA, US
Holy cow. Tricky find in the dark. The ape has been captured!


N Durango Dr, Las Vegas, NV, US
Looks like Ape wants to hi-jack this jet and soar off into the wild blue yonder. He is lurking around the base of this structure waiting for the right time to take flight. HINT: he is hiding in an Altoids tin at the right side of the structure under some “mineral” deposits.


152nd Pl SE, Bothell, WA, US
The Ape stopped for a break on the journey to this quiet park to hang out with some herons.


S Center St, St. Pat's, Joliet, IL, US
Saw this published while getting ready for work this morning, and was already 30 mins after publication before I was out the door. Made the quick trip over and started looking. I thought for sure I had been beat because GZ had changed since the posted pix were taken. Almost gave up, but spied the ticket way underneath. Thanks for placing this for me to find


S Center St, St. Pat's, Joliet, IL, US
At work and 1 hour 20 min ride I also not going to risk it. But would love it. Good luck.


S Center St, St. Pat's, Joliet, IL, US
2h15m drive...ugh I just can’t risk it. Congratulations to the snagger, whoever you may be


S Center St, St. Pat's, Joliet, IL, US
This tag is way down low. The great Ape and his friends guard this tag from a distance. You may need a tott to get this out. If you shove it in further, it may be lost forever. Probe gently.


US-93, Alamo, NV, US
Saw this listing posted this today as I drank my my morning coffee. I tossed the idea around for a bit and decided to go for it if it hadn't been claimed by the time I finished gassing up by car and getting an oil change. I doubled checked after my tasks were completed and saw it was still unclaimed. So, I put on an audio book, grabbed some snacks and headed out. Luckily, it was right in place when I got there and in a really cool tin. Thank you for hiding this, this was a nice fun day for me and, much needed.


US-93, Alamo, NV, US
This Ape is up in Alamo and hanging out with the Dino’s. Hint the APE is kinda under the Foot here at this mini Jurassic Park.


US-97, Ellensburg, WA, US
found with drjinx at about 7:45 am this morning. Just a slight drizzle and a couple of dog walkers out this morning.
This was the first Golden Ticket we've seen published nearby this year, so we're glad we could make the claim. Now... off to work.
Thanks for placing these tickets!

US-97, Ellensburg, WA, US
Woke up and ran over and found the rocks exactly as placed but no tag. And it hasn’t been logged so waste of my time and freezes my butt off. Thanks to those ruining the game for others


US-97, Ellensburg, WA, US
This Ape was out for an early morning wintery walk and decided to stash his ticket at the base of the pictured interpretive sign. Have fun!


Crestloch Rd, Pasco, WA, US
This find was the thrill of the day! We dashed out of bed with messy hair and empty bellies. Driving in a controlled frantic mode and believing everybody was on the same path, we pulled in safely to victory!
Thank you for the ticket! Kid was so excited to find.


W 2500 S, West Valley City, UT, US
I'm sooo excited!!! I didn't think any would be posted in Utah! I'd stopped checking and on a whim I looked and 1.5 hours earlier it had posted, I rolled outta bed and out the door to make the grab!
Many thanks to the hider, you made my day!


Bulls Bridge Rd, South Kent, Kent, CT, US
Came out to find this one with very little sleep last night. I made it harder than it needed to be so after walking in circles for a bit I put the coordinates in and made the easy find. Thanks for the hide and for taking me out today!


Crestloch Rd, Pasco, WA, US
The Ape must have needed some chocolate so he stopped by the Country Mercantile to get a little nibble. Saw this fancy tractor outside and went to investigate. But he had to "shift gears" because there were too many muggles for him to hang around long. Even so, he left his trademark Golden Ticket.


W 2500 S, West Valley City, UT, US
This ape had two tickets to the show, but wanted to be responsible and social distance from his friend. He left his ticket outside for you to pickup and join him at a later date.


Bulls Bridge Rd, South Kent, Kent, CT, US
The Ape was seen in the Town of Bulls Bridge, Kent, CT. Such a beautiful area to frolic near the raging water. The Ape is NOT on the bridge, but take the time to walk across it. A short hike to see the falls and raging water will lead you to a golf club shaped tree (see picture). The Ape took a rest there to look at the water.


Northern Pacific Trail, Saltese, MT, US
My first snag the tag! How fun is this, thank you for the hide.


Northern Pacific Trail, Saltese, MT, US
I believe this one was found as there were prints in the snow. It sure would of been nice for the person to have marked it as claimed. They could of driven 10 minutes East to get cell service. Oh well it was a nice drive even with the winter weather.


Outlet Collection Way, Auburn, WA, US
So close to home but didn’t see it until 7:15am. Headed quickly to tag and it was there!!! Yay! Thanks for the fun!


WA-14, Prindle, WA, US
Ahhhh my first snag the tag! I'm so excited!


Mulholland Dr, Sherman Oaks, Los Angeles, CA, US
It has been awhile since I was last on this road. Fun memories. Grabbed the tag and then enjoyed the view across the street. Thanks Scott for the tag.


Mulholland Dr, Sherman Oaks, Los Angeles, CA, US
Please safely park in the parking lot that is across the street from the tag. Once you have snagged the tag, leave everything else where you found it. I will be creating a geocache after someone has snagged the tag. If you want to sign the log AWAY from the FTF row, you can claim the BetaFind once the FTF has been logged.
Good luck and congratulations to the person who retrieves this.


WA-14, Prindle, WA, US
This APE was wandering around the Cape Horn trail. He stopped to enjoy this view and lost his ticket stub to the big show. Can you help locate the missing ticket stub? The APE was near the tree by the last post, look low under natural camo.


Outlet Collection Way, Auburn, WA, US
Just a common place to hide for a small thing.


Northern Pacific Trail, Saltese, MT, US
Please somebody go get this guy.... don't make me drive 10 hours to get it myself!


Mulholland Dr, Sherman Oaks, Los Angeles, CA, US
Snag the tag, but leave the rest where it is.


10th Ave NW, Richmond Highlands, Shoreline, WA, US
Made the find early this morning! Thanks for hiding this!


10th Ave NW, Richmond Highlands, Shoreline, WA, US
I did not find the tag.


10th Ave NW, Richmond Highlands, Shoreline, WA, US
each morning I awaken make coffee cross the road in front of my home for the morning paper road on one side ravine, stream, and forest on the other
carefully moving back avoid morning traffic I shift away from a rushing world into the glowing
it peeks between trees reflects from luminous throats of hummingbirds shimmers against a rushing stream dances in morning fog rising ghostlike from the forest floor becomes lacy white light washing over everything and me
having stepped back across the road I realize how easily the glowing disappears when I lose myself in an acclerated world
by James B. Moore
Hint: Look on the back side of the sign with this poem on top, hidden under a small green branch


41st Ave SW, Fauntleroy, Seattle, WA, US
I love GIFF. Saw this publish and was surprised to discover it was still there when I arrived.


41st Ave SW, Fauntleroy, Seattle, WA, US
Those of you who have been watching the GIFF from the beginning may remember a film about a Sasquatch. This tag is hidden at one of the filming locations. Look for the distinctive tree.


7th Ave E, Mobridge, SD, US
What an adventure, as it was Veterans day I had projects around the house and didn’t check my email till after lunch. I seen this tag publish 7 hrs ago and was 100 miles away. I called my geo buddy Butterfly_77 to see if she wanted to go on an adventure. She came to town as I gassed up my geovan. We took the fastest route and kept refreshing the tag page the whole way. Thank you for placing this tag for a local in the area to find! It made our day :)


S 3rd St, Coeur d'Alene, ID, US
Found ticket on the Boardwalk. Thanks.


S Grand Central Pkwy, Las Vegas, NV, US
Took a bit of driving to find a place to park. Cool!


S 3rd St, Coeur d'Alene, ID, US
Ape found downtown Coeur'dAlene climbing around on the tall buildings. Needing a rest it came out onto the boardwalk. Found a bench to take that rest and it fell asleep. Be stealthy enough you might still find it sleeping down under.
