The top of the Summit above One Clover Over. Bring your camera for 8138ft. of views! P.S.-Do not do this in the rain or you will be the lightning rod. FTF Goes to ~Hiking Fool~, Congrats to him.
One green .30 caliber ammo can located at the top, not the false summit (Ha, Ha, Hee, Hee, Woohooohahahahaha (evil laugh inserted for sound effects)), but the top. Once you get to the top you can climb on top of the rocks and maybe find a cache container :)~ The cache container is ~NOT~ the clear glass jar with notepad and pencil in it located on top. Although my cache container DOES contain pen, and pencil, along with its logbook.

Just get up on top of the rocks and look down, you don't need any clues.

Out for a chilly day of hiking with GoMRT. Didn't see a lot of views, but being socked in fog ALL day (and not getting rained on!) was a cool experience. Cool spot, I'm sure it's even more beautiful on a clear day. Thanks for placing this cache!

Making my way up here before the rain comes in this afternoon and the potential lightning with it (which is happening as I look out my window as it rolls over Pikes Peak and Ute Pass). The ammo can is there as is a spiral notebook with the only thing noting it as a geocache is the writing on the side of the can. TFTC!

Found it while exploring a side trail off of Section 16. Cache is in great shape, though there was an used marijuana joint inside, saturating the contents with 'that smell.' After signing the log and putting everything away, I spent several minutes just sitting there and enjoying the fantastic views. Thank you for placing a cache here!

This one took some effort! First the hike in itself via the Palmer Red Rock Loop was quite the workout! Second, just to get on top of the rocks you need to have long legs or a spotter for some help. The views from the top were worth it though! We were lucky to see 2 para-gliders in the air. They stayed up there for a long time. The cache itself was fairly easy to spot. We took the time to do some housecleaning and removed lots of trash from the container, including "Kitty-Litter"!? All in all, this cache deserves another favorite point. Left a TB that wants to travel to the east coast. Tftc.
