The evil 9yr old thought this would be fun.


The cache is not at the above coordinates, but it is a good starting point, You could probably get it during the daylight but would be easier after dark or before daylight .You are looking reflectors , not to high and some are only 1"×1", follow the single reflectors until you see a double .Then you will need to mark that location and start walking, there will not be any reflectors until you have reached the top of the hill then the reflectors start again cache will be a short walk from hill.. Bring a good flashlight .this is a good area so don't worry about getting mugged except for the wildlife (ha, ha).The cache is not at the water’s edge so don't go in.!!!!!I also stuck an extra reflector at the top of a hill to let you know where the trail is.This will take you at least 45 min to do,it is not a quick cache and dash.Follow reflectors until you see several together and then the cache will be under them.If you have little ones hang on to them as there is a river near.

I did this run during the day and at night and it can be done but some of the reflectors were hard to see during the day...


Congrats to Hartsdale for the FTF............And he even came down during the day from the Springs to snag it!!!!!!

Went with my husband, Rastus76 and my son Ghasper2 and daughter meridythmooss. We truly had a blast looking for all the reflectors and it was such a gorgeous evening to do it! However, we followed everything to a “t” and alas, couldn’t find the cluster to get us to the final cache. Not sure if they need replaced or we missed them big time. Four flashlights and we just couldn’t find it. But, it was worth the hike regardless!

Spent a good part of the night with three other goecachers and we had no luck. Was able to find all the reflectors except the final cluster. Looks like some work has taken place down there. Maybe the owner can check and see if it is still there? Still had a blast looking for it and enjoyed being out on such a nice night with the fam.

Another fun Saturday cache run with OF-Erad and Ghostsoldier. We came over here to look for this final after weather ran us out of the Canyon City area. We had started this at night a few weeks ago and spotted the double reflectors but wasn't sure where to go from there. We came back today and spent a long amount of time searching near the double reflectors when we spotted a small toy car. A slightly expanded search revealed a broken container with the lid off that was full of leaves and ice. We added a small slip of paper with our signatures to prove we were there but this one is in dire need of C/O attention...TFTC SL
