This is my 2013 contribution to caches in Waterton Canyon.
This cache is hidden a ways past the big dam but not as far as the "A Ton of Water" cache. There are several ways to get to the hiding spot once you get within a few hundred feet. You can make the approach really hard by taking the most direct route (45 degree incline?). Or, you can use a less direct but easier route. The route I ended up with did not require any significant bushwhacking or steep climbing. Your mileage may vary. Staying on the trail until the last minute is always a good idea.

If you see any bighorn sheep in the area, please steer clear of them. Lots of sheep droppings in the area. I did not see any sheep when I hid this cache but they are common.

This cache is not far from the trail that most people call the Roxborough Loop. Not many people go up this trail - people are usually coming down this trail. If you keep going, you can get to the Time Trial cache.

I recommend a bicycle but not to get all the way to the Time Trail cache.

Micro. Pine Tree. No tree climbing required. Not your typical micro in a pine tree hide, though.

Final stop on our power walk for the day, merely back down the road and out from here. There was a smarter way to approach the cache, but the bushes enjoyed giving a thrashing on the direct route. Cache is in fine shape after ten lonely months. TFTC

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

Last one of the day. Great Geocache.

My thirteenth 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.

Last cache of a very awesome caching adventure. I'll be sore for weeks haha. Took the hard way to, and from this cache. Then the long ride back to the car. Thanks!

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