This one might be tricky to anyone who hasn't seen this type before. This cache requires a hike of around a mile (or more) each way on dirt trails, no matter which way you approach it. When opening the container, please only remove the lid to avoid damaging the hide. You might see an occasional muggle. BYOP.

Congratulations to 2SKPs for the FTF!

We saw a soaring hawk here while we were seeking cache locations. This fits nicely with the nearby Hovering Hawk cache (GCZNDH).

This cache series ("Geocaching Merit Badge") represents caches created for a Boy Scout merit badge college in April 2011, which was co-instructed by HendrickClan, LeenMarcia, DogPack6, and SJacksonCO.

Today's adventure led us ( @intrepiidexplorer and @WindAtMyBack ) to the wilderness east of Castle Rock. We walked into Hidden Mesa to grab the caches and experience this beautiful day. The weather was cooperative - sunny, but not too hot. During our expedition we saw several hawks and hummingbirds, caught and released a fence lizard, and saw a few wild turkeys. Cactus flowers are in bloom. No snakes were sighted, but we saw evidence that one had recently crossed the walking path.
We soared over to this one and made the find without any problems.

Good find on my Birthday after a strenuous up hill hike! The log was a little damp so I dried it out and added a small baggie. Cache on!
