The cache is located along the North Table Loop Trail within the North Table Mountain Open Space trails.There are several trailheads along the base of the mountain.A short easy hike would be accessed from Highway 93 north of Golden, across from the carwash. There is plenty of parking .If you feel like a longer hike I would suggest West 58th Ave across from Crestone Street. The hike from here is about 1.5 miles. .
The cache is in a lock tight tupperware. I left a weather station keychain for FTF.

Today after work I opted to take a trail walk and grab a bunch of caches near North Table Mountain. It was just over a 4 mile hike. The weather started with light rain and my journey ended in sunshine. The weather was great. I saw one hawk, several crows (or ravens) and deer footprints. I was a little concerned with Table Mountain's reputation for high rattlesnake concentrations. Thankfully, I didn't see one. But it did cause one scare.
I was reaching toward a cache when I startled a large grasshopper. It's wings made the sound of a bug zapper as it soared away from my head. My head, filled with thoughts of rattlesnakes, froze. My pulse soared, my breath fled, and I screamed as my brain made the connection between the noise and my fear of being bitten. But a few seconds of being frozen like a deer and my brain figured out that the grasshopper scared me. There was no snake.
Cute idea. I grabbed the TB to move it along. TFTC!

Had to backtrack just a bit as I walked right by it on the trail. Dropped off a travel bug.
