GC1AQK0 Traditional Cache Bair Sheep Crossing
Type: Traditional | Size: Micro Micro | Difficulty: 2 out of 5 | Terrain: 1.5 out of 5
By: DARR @ | Hide Date: 03/30/2008 | Status: Available
Country: United States | State: Colorado
Coordinates: N39° 38.686 W107° 04.690 | Last updated: 08/30/2019 | Fav points: 6
Takes less than an hour  Scenic view  Recommended at night  Available during winter  Parking available  Bicycles 
Accessible only from the North frontage road or from the river. There is an underpass across I-70 that you can drive through but it has an overhead clearence of 10'6". Otherwise it's a very short, flat walk through the tunnel from a parking place on the North side to the cache on the South.
The cache contains a log only and is not attached to the river info reporting station close-by. And for the Bench Mark seekers, there's one close-by.


Congratulations to Estay on the FTF!

Thanks for the cache. Took a little to figure out how to get on the frontage road, but no issues after that. Explored the bridge (with some trepidation) up to the locked gate. The recording station seems to be defunct? Pipe was cut off and folded over. River sure was running good though after all the rain and snow this spring. Saw various branches, logs, trees, railroad ties, and one tire still attached to a wheel floating by this morning.

Great cache in a tricky spot. Too small for trinkets, with only a log but no writing utensil. Make sure you look closely. It is well maintained and great for park ´n` grab. Thanks for our very first cache,

In Vail for a work conference. Came in a day early to do some sightseeing and geocaching! Had a fabulous day exploring this area of Colorado. Thanks for placing the cache to get me to this unique area!

After finding out that Hanging Lake was closed, I had to improvise. Somehow I stumbled upon this area and am so glad I did. This is a really neat bridge.

What a neat spot! Found it after a quick search. It sure does blend in nicely! Log is dry, but is pretty full. Signed and replaced as found. Thanks for the fun hide!

I have to admit this one was tough.. Peoples logs saying how easy it was only frustrated me. This is a cool container and a fun one to find.
