There used to be another cache here but it was archived several years ago. This is one of my favorite places on the planet and is too nice not to have a cache here so I decided to remedy this. This is a popular spot but the cache is far enough away from parking that stealth should not be required. Before or after the find, feel free to stay for awhile and drink in the view. There is an unactivated TB and small prize for FTF.

FluffyNinja and I searched for a while but didn't find it. We did see cool animal tracks and some hummingbirds kept zooming right past me. We will try again some other time.

Thanks for the fun cache! Making a short route home after work to grab some more caches toward the mythical creatures. Almost there! I parked up high and walked down to this one. Made a quick find. Stamped the log and replaced as found. Everything is in good order here! Onto the next one just down the hill! Thanks for placing this fun hide for us all to enjoy!

A side note regarding this one, after the previous cache that was here was archived I was excited to place a new cache here related to that big blue frame! I missed my chance though! Maybe if you want to collaborate we could come up with something! It probably wouldn't be understood by very many tourists, but the locals might get a kick out of it!

Literally a breathtaking view. I didn't find the cache but I did find a large wasp nest.

We moved away from the Springs in 2015. Definitely miss being so near the mountains. Can't beat this view! Sl, thanks!
