Take I-70 to Fall River Road which is near Idaho Springs. Get off on Fall River Road take that just over 8 miles toward St Mary's Glacier. These are the coordinates for parking N39 49.688 W105 38.530. Take St Mary's Trailhead which is just a little bit down the road from parking (you will see it on your way to parking).
The Cache is a container about the size of an ammo box. It is found on the way up St Mary's trail. The contents started with a bunch of nick nacks like a swiss army compass, Rounders Travel Bug, many bouncy balls, a squishy duck, etc. After you find the cache feel free to continue up the trail about 3/4 of a mile total and check out the glacier. I didn't put the cache there because there are often just too many muggles. Good caching!

 Hints

It is under a lot held up by rocks near a tree. It is easier to see looking up hill then downhill at the cache so go downhill from the coordinates and work your way up.

Awesome area! We went all the way up to the lake and it was so worth the hike! Cache is a bit damp inside and you are able to still write in the log book. Dried it out as best we could and replaced! TFTC! Pictures is from the lake!
