view from the cache

Close to a jeep trail east of St. Mary's Glacier. From Fall River road turn at "Fall River Road Adventures", to get access to the jeep trail. Only about 200 foot walk if you take the right trail.
It is in an ammo can. Team Abigal has two caches in the area so makes for easy 3 bagger

I like finding remote caches. This one hasn't been found in nearly a year except accidentally by someone out metal detecting. I didn't take a picture but he was nice enough to sign the log and replace as he found it.
Neat place. Thanks for bringing us here.

Spending the day in the hills with Team Red Rubicon. Lots of trails to see, lots of places to visit. This one was one along the path of the day. We stopped pretty close to GZ and headed out for the cache. A short search with so many people looking for it, and we really liked the nearby well. Kind of spooky to open up and look down. Kids enjoyed it though.

Came up to cool down after a hike at Heritage Square and had a great time bouncing my truck up the hill. The views are incredible and the wildflowers are out in full force. Happy to say that the cache is in good shape 2.5 years of no logs. Wonder what the treasure hole is? Cheers!

How cool is this! I'm still trying to figure out how people find these little spots to hide. Noticed a small wall, do we know what used to be here? Had fun sliding in the snow in july. Thanks!

I made a trip up Cumberland Gulch today to replace a cache for Kawikaturn and I looked for this cache after reaching the top but it was no joy for me on this one today. RM
