This log-only cache is located in Highlands Ranch near the C-470 paved trail, which is ideal for running, biking, rollerblading, and walking leashed dogs.

---

Parking is available by the trail access behind local businesses at the following coordinates: N 39 33.883 W 104 54.397. The cache is an "unusual" container that only contains a log, so be sure to bring a writing implement.

Checked on the cache and the container was where it's supposed to be. Good to go!

Lots of construction I think it’s gone

Unfortunately this is a dnf for me tonight. There are only scrubby bushes left and many new tire tracks in the freshly turned dirt. No luck tonight...

New container. Ready to go!

The area where Hootie was located is still under construction due to the widening of C-470. I hope to replace Hootie when construction is completed.

Greetings,

We are doing a check of caches that have been disabled for an extended period. Please maintain this cache and post an appropriate note to the cache page.

As stated in the cache listing guidelines https://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#listingmaintenance You may temporarily disable your cache to let others know not to hunt for it until you have a chance to fix the problem. This feature is to allow you a reasonable time - normally a few weeks - in which to arrange a visit to your cache. In the event that a cache is not being properly maintained, or has been temporarily disabled for an extended period of time, we may archive or transfer the listing.

PLEASE NOTE:
Today's notice is a friendly reminder only. Do not reply to me directly. Rather, please LOG A VISIT on this cache page and WRITE A NOTE with a status update and any intention to revive the cache. Several reviewers participate in cache maintenance tasks so a log posted in this manner is the best way to get your message seen. Without a log posted you risk having the cache archived.

If you have disabled this cache for the winter or a season, please consider this a reminder to post a notice for when you expect the area to re-open. Re-activate the cache if the area is actually open again.

After you have checked on it and it's ready for seeking again, great! You can re-enable the cache page http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 by clicking the link under the cache name or by checking the box that says the cache is active. If, however, you discover that the cache is missing and/or you decide not to replace it, then please remove any remaining pieces of it and archive it. This will open up the area for other geocachers to hide their own geocaches. You may also need to digitally relocate any trackable items still listed here. If a "Needs Maintenance" log was posted, you will also need to log an "Owner Maintenance" log to clear the "Needs Maintenance" icon from the geocache page. http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404

I want to thank you for the time that you have taken to contribute to geocaching in the past and I am looking forward to seeing your cache up and running in the future. If the cache is not maintained or the status is not updated, it will be archived. Thank you for understanding.

If this sounds like an automated email template, that's because it is. I apologize for that but the volume of messages we get is such that templates like this make the process much more efficient. Thanks for your understanding.

I look forward to hearing from you. Do not reply to this email. It is sent by a no-reply mailbot so I won't get it. To respond, please do NOT send me an e-mail or a message center conversation as they lack needed functionality for reviewing. Leave a new "Reviewer Note" log here on your cache page. If you're not familiar with this process, see the instructions https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=97&pgid=74. I have your cache on my watchlist, and I will receive a notification when you write your note. All reviewer notes are deleted when your cache is published.

Additionally, please note that if I've not heard from you in 4 weeks, I may be forced to archive this cache. Don't let your cache get archived for non-communication

Visited the area for cache maintenance and they had removed all of the trees that they were supposed to save and graded the entire area. The cache was nowhere to be found and was a victim of new highway construction. Will relocate the original container as close as possible.

It's gone. Construction has taken over area.

Met some other geocachers when heading for the spot and one of them actually found it, which made it very easy for me. It might have taken me a bit longer! Thanks for the fun!
