The "no outlet" sign had me worried, so passed up a few other caches on the way, thinking we would be turning around and retracing our path, but got this one!

Colorado welcomes us last night we horrible thunderstorms. We managed to miss the big hail but it was questionable for a while. We are out caching in 50 degrees. Who would have thought it would be 50 degrees in late June. WOW!! Tftc

LIve Wire 77 and I caching the eastern plains to finish up the Hidden Creatures goal of 100. We found 35 of 35, only needed 31. My favorite place to cache; beautiful views, dirt roads, and wide open spaces. Thank you for placing this cache so we could enjoy the game. sl
