Far West isn't as far west as you can go at Copper, but it offers some great skiing.
I placed this cache in an area I've always loved skiing, and figured I'd try to fill in one of the few gaps other cache owners have left on Copper Mountain.

You're looking for a black tube, about the same diameter as a film canister but about twice as long. Because of the length, there's a log-retrieval tool inside. Please be careful not to rip the log when using it, and not to drop it. It's not far off the main run.

There probably isn't any room for trackables. Be sure to bring your own pen or pencil, and have fun!


CONGRATULATIONS TO ESTES01 FOR THE FTF!

The cache is hanging about chest-high on the downhill side of the middle tree in an unusually straight line of three trees going from southwest to northeast.

Great spring skiing day. Seems this one has been passed by for most of the season. Solidly constructed, in great shape. TFTC.

In addition to logging 30K of vertical on the slopes of Copper Mountain today, I managed to find 4 great ski-o-caches. A beautiful Saturday on the slopes combining 2 of my favorite sports. TFTC!

First day of skiing this season so I had to get a few caches. The snow had just started so it was a little more forgiving.
I've never skied this far west at Copper so this was a new run for me. Skied past GZ so I had to hike uphill about 20' to get the prize. TFTC!
