Small camoed tin just off a spur of the Ute Pass Trail.

Cache is on what I refer to as the 'Pipeline Trail' that follows a portion of a water pipeline. From the bottom, the trail gains almost all of its altitude in the first half-mile, then it's a mostly flat stroll to the cache. Bottom of the trail is at the bottom of the Incline, and the top is a spur off the Ute Pass trail past the high point. At least three ways to get here: Go past the 'Green gate' across from Waldo; Start from the bottom of the Incline; Up Ute Pass Trail, then up a side trail straight up to the cache.

Since this is July, it means that if it's not logged here, there is a good chance it hasn't been found yet. Good luck!

With all the natural camouflage in the area and the jumpy GPS coordinates, this was a tough hide. Read over previous logs and snailman’s suggested visual cue got us in the correct area. Made the find immediately after. Thanks for the challenging cache.

First time for us to explore this spur of the trail. Nice and quiet trail compared to all the masses below us on the incline. Took the trackable that has been sitting for almost 2 years. Great shape for a lonely cache. Tftc!

Could not find. Looked beneath all the hints at GZ. No stocks and stones.

We went out on a fun hike with Back Country Horsemen along the Ute Pass Trail. We hiked for 12 miles over 6 hours and found 10 caches along the way.

This was an easy find along a nice trail. I left a LEGO Poe Dameron TB for the next finder.

This is day 1318 of our current daily caching streak (day 22 of our Mystery Cache streak). Thanks again for helping us to extend our streak by another day.

TFTC!
