Come visit the Melon Capital of the World - Rocky Ford! Stop by Babcock Park, where the cache is located, and it's just a short walk from the parking area.
The cache is a medium sized peanut butter jar and contains a bunch of small swag. Be discrete, as there is a path nearby. Bent's Fort is just a few miles from Rocky Ford, and several other Geo caches, so be sure to visit the other caches in the area, like Ryan's Pond cache. Rocky Park Riches cache is located near the Katlin canal, which has a nice jogging/walking trail along it (the cache isn't located on this trail, but it's a nice walk and dogs and bikes are allowed).
Be sure to stop by one of the farm markets for some fresh Rocky Ford melons. If you don't like cantaloupe, watermelon, or about any other kind of melon, you will once you taste Rocky Ford's sweet melons!

I stopped here early this morning on my way to Wichita. I spent a good deal of time searching without success. I checked previous logs and saw that previous catchers had not been able to find it either. I grabbed a small duct taped jar out of the truck and left it as a replacement in the obvious spot. I covered it with a bit of natural camo. Hope that's ok. If not let me know & I'll pick it up on my return trip. Thanks for placing this cache.

Looks like this one has been missing a while. Searched for a bit. No luck.
