The Meadow Lane Cache Crashers found it with no trouble. Very cool place!

This was a fun one to find. Great dwelling. I was impressed with the walls they built out of the rocks. There was also a bench, and a table made from rocks. Someone left a little broom and dog dish as well for future visitors.

We parked at N 39° 40.565 W 105° 26.185 and walked along the power lines straight to the cache. Gets a fave, and I will add a pic or two as well.

Meandered around the Evergreen/Golden area with "animjason" on a pleasant spring day - this was the fourth of six geocaches that I found along the way. TN-LN-SL. Thanks !

In a very slight way, the dwelling reminds me of a lean-to shelter that me & college buddies built in the woods beyond our college campus in Virginia. We built it as a project for our backpacking class. We would go out there at night sometimes and build a fire and drink beer and look at the stars. What fun! I only got a "C" in the class, but made a lifetime of memories.

The ascent (straight up from the parking waypoint) was easier than the descent down the cairn trail. TFTC! Gets a fave for craftsmanship and natural beauty! Also, noticed some non-cachers love the spot - visit frequently and always sign log.

A fantastic spot in a great location. Found this one with some friends that live at the bottom of the hill. Please respect their property and others around on the access to this great cache. Thanks!
