Nice spot to sit it and enjoy the views. I had gotten ahead of Lemonheadmafia. So after signing the cache I sat and waited for him to catch up. He just got a new camera and was meyondering behind me taking photos. Sl, thanks!

Hi - date is approximate since we had really sketchy internet service during our recent visit to the Colo Springs area & I'm late-logging.
I had two very nice days to visit down to Canyon City- interrupted by that mini-blizzard that rolled thru ! Found a lot of caches including some challenges, & a multi with a choice D/T combo for filling a space in an all-multi fizzy grid.

Grabbed this cool oldie on the way up to do the ridge series & bonus, and enjoyed some great views! Thanks Smile

What an awesome day, weather wise, to go and grab some caches. It’s still here! Had a few living bugs living under the cache. Took a peso and left a small toy. TFTC

Thanks for the fun cache!

Caching in the area with Kerewin0430 today hitting some fun locations. We started on Tunnel Drive and Soda Fountain. Then moved to the top of the gorge. The third stop was Skyline Drive! Epic day for sure!! What adventures, great views, and nice caches!

This was our third here. After parking at the trail head we made our way across the whole ridge. Signed the log and replaced as found. All is well here! Thanks for placing this one for us!

Out here to crew at the balloon festival this weekend. Pretty easy hike out to this cache for me. I can't deny that I've gone to higher ledges for the sake of geocaching. TFTC
