This cache is hidden in Deer Creek Canyon park about 90 feet off of one of the many nice trails in the park. This is the fourth in a series of caches. In order to find the seventh in the series, you will need to find three of the first six. In order to find the eighth in the series, you will need to find the other three among the first six.
Most caches in this series are along trails in open space areas west and southwest of Denver. A few are farther out there.

On the inside of the lid of this cache you will find a 3 digit number that you should make note of because it will be important for solving the puzzle in either the seventh or eighth cache in the series.

Beware of rattlesnakes in snake season! Oh, and bring your own pen.

Tough cache! Took way longer than it should've to find it. We climbed up too high at first. Then Lemonhead mafia finally spotted it. Somehow I didn't catch that and kept looking while he sat by the cache waiting for me. Finally caught on and signed the log. Tftc!

Found this afternoon with my muggle sister while enjoying the hike to GC7C8. We worked up the hill to the base of the rocks and I went up to make the find. As I was signing the log, the rain started to fall. Grabbed the code, replaced as found and started back down. Continued up the trail to our goal. Cache and log are in good shape, still room for additional signers. Thanks for the hide.
