**********Cache has been moved about 10 feet towards the dominoes****

Up a steep hill, past some reservoirs, to domino looking rocks we go.

Take the reservoir trail up past the second reservoir. There is a trail that heads off to the right, past a great beaver pond and through a meadow of Aspens, a highly recommended lunch spot. The cache is very easy to spot once you get in the right location. Trees may make coordinates a little off but this is barely hidden.

Families welcome to this cache.


We continued up the hill which was pretty steep but not to long (about .2 miles). There are great views on the way up and on the summit you can see Cap Rock. Remember to bring your M&M's for a family summit reward.

It was a wonderful day to be out for a walk in the woods; a few inches of snow fell over the weekend and made the transition from fall to winter in 48 hrs.

The container is in good shape, although nibbled at the edges.

Hiking the reservoir trail on a cool summer morning. I was able to get this cache with a little bit of looking. Left a TB to inspire the next cacher.

Out for an early Saturday morning hike to go after a FTF, trade some trackables, and explore these beautiful trails with just a dusting of snow on them. All containers and logs were in great shape and ready for signing. Picked up the trackable to keep it moving during the winter. Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache.

As a way to start the New Year off right, I was fortunate to be included in a geo-group consisting of Brennan7, 3 Williams Kidz, RPieperCO, YamaGypsy, and Kerewin0430. I’ve been on this Balanced Rock Road / trail before, but it was much more fun with the group. This was the last find of the day and for extra fun we broke our group up to get here, linking up at GZ. I was the last from my group to arrive at GZ because...I was on bear security detail as we feared there was a small chance that RPieperCOs jingling TB collection on the outside of his pack would not be heard by dangerous bears in China. Thanks to the CO for placing this nice cache for everyone to find, TFTC.

Last cache of the day! Fun adventure to kick off the new year with Ktrackers, 3WilliamsKidz, Rpieperco, Brennan7, and Kerewin0430. Thanks for bringing us to this spot

Was so happy to be invited to go out for a New Year's hike with Brennan7, 3 Williams Kidz, RPieperCO, YamaGypsy, and K Trackers. This was our last cache of the day. The air was crisp and cold, perfect temp as long as you keep walking. :-) Brennan7 and I had backtracked to remedy a missing log situation, then zig zagged back and up through the meadow to meet the others here. Thanks for placing this one along such a pretty trail!

Nice find by the geo-team of myself (just me, no Kidz), Brennan7, RPieperCO, Kerewin0430, YamaGypsy, and K Trackers. VERY COOL Domino Rocks (photo attached), making for a great cache location. Stamped the log, dropped off a trackable (Rudolph the Red-Nosed Ammo Can) and continued on our geo-adventure. TFTC !

Thanks for the fun cache! Out on New Year's Day with 3WilliamsKids, Brennan7, YamaGypsy, Kerewin0430, and KTrackers to get some caches and enjoy the great day! What an awesome hike through a couple trails I never knew about. Enjoyed the sunshine, great trails, and fun stories. This was a quick stop on the adventure. Thanks for placing this for us to enjoy!

This was our final cache of the day. After finding "View of Cap Rock," RPeiperCO realized that he had forgotten to put the logbook into a cache that we hid earlier along the trail. So, Kerewin0430 and I ran back to that cache and met up with the rest of the group at this one. Thanks for bringing us here! Very neat spot.
