The coordinates were wrong, but the hint helped us find it. There was lots of cool stuff in it. It took us a while to find it with the hard terrain. There was a lot of cool things in the cache. We dropped a Father's Day travel bug in the cache and took a plush dog. TFTC!

Camped at Pumphouse before a run down to State Bridge. Made a nice hike up to this one, but I made a wrong turn just past the backcountry campsites and ended up climbing up from the river to the trail and then up to grab this one. Cache is in fine shape with lots of swag. Cheers!

Can't believe this cache has not been logged since 2011. There are newer signatures in the log so this cache must be on one of the other less popular geocaching sights as well. Trail along river is in bad shape and covered in gopher snakes.

Enjoyed the hike and the opportunity to see the river really flowing! Took some beads and left some polished rocks.

The dark clouds broke just as we started scrambling around on the hill and then soaked us on the way out. Gotta love the summer weather in Colorado.

We were relieved to find the cache in good shape since it has not been logged in almost 2 years. There were a couple of entries in the log book from 2010. High water on the river made us try a couple different attempts. Thanks for a great cache!

Perfect Colorado day to be out and about. The water level was quite high, so that foiled our first attempt to get at the cache. Tried "Plan B" and had no problems. There were two finders in 2010 who have not logged on line.

Thanks for getting us out here. Lots of mosquitoes. We enjoyed watching the rafters launching.

Easily could've bagged it from other direction, but glad I opted for the hike. Beautiful! Already knew I was gonna push on before finding it...went another 1.2 miles upstream before heading back to the car.
