Another in a series of Trail Mix caches.

This is the northernmost of the Trail Mix series (at least so far). It is along the Belcher Hill trail in White Ranch Open Space Park. The length of the hike depends on where you start and which trail you take. I got to the location with my bicycle while looking for other caches in the park. I had started at the overflow lot at the far west side of the park. It was about 3.5 miles the way I went (via the Mustang Trail). The most direct routes from either the upper or lower parking lot might be about 2 miles one way. See the waypoints for parking options.

Unlike some of the other caches in this series, there are no clues to retrieve or puzzles to find this or any other cache.

Beware of rattlesnakes in snake season! Oh, and bring your own pen.

My faithful dog Dubarry and I had an awesome 7-mile, 11-geocache hike around White Ranch Park today. It's always terrific to play hooky from work on a weekday and get out and do something like this. Thanks to the CO for helping make it possible.

Drove over here from Denver to grab some of these caches. Got settled in the parking lot around 10:30am and started my adventure. Roughly 8.5 miles and 4.5 hours later, I was back at the car. Found 15/15 caches and was happy with my day. Every cache was found in good condition. The trail was very well-marked and was one of the least muggle-filled ones I have been on since moving to Denver. Overall, great day. Thanks for all the caches.
