Waterton Canyon is finally open again after being closed for more than a year. So, I returned to Waterton and hid several caches including this one.

Micro container where you can get a two-for.
Get your bike out and head up into Waterton Canyon to this location where there is a large boulder. While you are there, check out what's on top of the boulder.

One time when riding up the canyon, I noticed a bunch of people just south of this location by the green electrical box. I stopped and asked what they were looking at. It was a black bear on the other side of the river quite a ways up the hill. That was a good adventure that day as is any ride up Waterton.

As always in Waterton Canyon, watch for rattlesnakes, bighorn sheep and mule deer. Also, watch out for spiders and frogs in the area.

Found this little fella doing fine in a sunny spot, way above the muck of the road. A little over ten miles breaking in new boots today. (o-ring is dying again, sorry) Thanks for a nice cache placement.

We had fun finding this cache with no service to our phones. Enjoyed a Picnic close to the water before our search. TFTC SL

Found with animjason while on an epic bike ride with animjason and cajrrman. It was a tiring, but epic caching day.

My sixth of thirteen caches found with Sissadies and cajrrman. He invited us on a bike ride today at Waterton. Our first time bike riding in years, that was a brutal but fun intro since we went about 16+ miles round trip. Definitely need better bike seat, ouch! Also pretty sure I accidentally put tomorrow's date on our log, oops.

Cache had a fun partner. Thanks again for the twofer!

I checked on all my Waterton caches today. This one was fine except for the o-ring which I replaced.
