This cache is located by Olney Springs, Colorado. Not a lot around this area but we sure can make it a nice spot for geocachers. This is one of many planned caches to hopefully get a nice power trail going in the area.

As always, with this type of desert terrain, be watchful and cautious for things that poke, sting and bite. And remember, a good cacher always practices CITO if needed! Thanks for visiting our neck of the woods and happy caching!

Capotain Hat - is a tall-crowned, narrow brimmed, slightly conical hat, usually black, worn by men & women from the 1590's into the mid 17th Century in England and Northwestern Europe. It is also commonly called a Flat Topped Hat and a Pilgrim Hat, the latter for it's association with the Pilgrims that settled Plymouth Colony in the 1620's.

Decided to hit the road for a geocaching mini trip. Looks like I am getting a nice variety of traditionals, a few virtuals and ECs. I am really pleased to find Colorado Spirit Quests. Thanks to all the COs who placed these caches so I can have my geo-fun.

Its been a long hot summer in Texas, I've been trying to get out and do a caching trip a couple of times this summer, but it never worked out. Finally managed to get a week off, and am so happy to be out here in Colorado. The weather if perfect, and there is a load of caches that need my name on Smile Thanks so much for the hide TaylortheGrizzly-ttg, I really enjoyed finiding this cache!

Destroyed by fire and replaced. New cashe was created with pieces of glass found along the railroad tracks nearby. Beach glass from Hawaii along with a home made patch are located inside. Enjoy the find, and a story close to my heart.
