When you get done hiking up here, you want to go for a nice cool refreshment to hydrate yourself after working so hard to get to this point. You need to make sure you do that when you return home. In the meantime, here's a little field puzzle for you to enjoy at altitude.

***The geocache is at the posted coordinates. You need to open the scuba tube container on the front for further instructions.***

Please do not post any photographs of the cache that you find once you complete the field puzzle. All photographs will be deleted. Let the next geocacher have the same ability to enjoy the cache as you have.

Once you're able to open the geocache container, please do not let it slam all the way open, but guide it open as it drops. Be careful with it so the next geocacher can enjoy it just as much as you have. Combo has to be in place to lock it before you spin the numbers.

This cache could be more difficult in certain seasons.

Watch for Big Foot in the area. He has been seen.

There is a trail map online (http://www.gmfcotrails.org/Trails-Map.html).

There is room for trackables and coins in the container.

Watch for wildlife and respect their domain.

Caching can be dangerous. There are inherent risks involved which you take upon yourself when you are caching.

Please be careful and remember rule #13 - HAVE FUN!

Kudos to RPieperCO for the handy work you see.

Congrats to hartsdale on FTF!

I did this loop last year on June 2nd collecting all of the caches on this loop. A short time later two other caches made their appearance. Today Offsprings and I hiked this loop again picking up these "new" caches. Nice container. A lot of work went into this one. TFTC.

We finally made it back to successfully solve this one. Java Chip just couldn't let it be forgotten. Thanks to our friend who gave us the answer soon after we were here the last time. This one gets a favorite point from us. TFTC!

Favorite point awarded!!!! :) this was our one and only goal and cache for the day. admittedly we had attempted this back in october with some non-caching companions and we were already trying their patience with caching and hiking and so had to leave this unsolved. came back today and finally had our a-ha moment. such a great, fun and creative cache. we aren’t much for urban caching so to find something so creative out deep in the hills made our day. thanks so much for all the effort and for both the smiley on our map and on our faces when we finally solved it. :) great job. brought a pin to leave but of course forgot to leave it. tnlnsl. :)

It was a very hot day and lots of uphill in the sun, so I enjoyed the refreshing break here. Thanks for the creative cache and nice break!

Getting logs caught up, now that retreat to a more southerly (& wayy hotter) home provides more useable internet!

Whoah; I really went face-first in a pile on this one. I knew the thing as soon as I read the puzzle "instructions" ...was kinda' embarressed for anybody who might need internet via phone for anything here.
Then came the "karma's a &!t@# part... and I got &!t@#-slapped but good. I just couldn't make my fingers make things line up right... or stay that way... and I blew at least an hour(felt like it) failing, failing; failing.

When I finally walked away it was with hanging head ... " mmm, Sorry I doubted you needing internet ....hope you're not mad I used a green pen ! .. "

Estes01 and I had the good fortune to run into the CO while he was placing this new cache. It's a fun addition to all the others that have been hidden up here recently. Now I have the theme song stuck in my head. TFTC

Imagine finding such a contraption way out in the middle of nowhere - crazy. I got the capsule open and read the clue, but not being up on that aspect of popular culture, had to consult a higher power. Master Verizon only gave me two bars but it was enough. The assembly seemed to stick a little but was agreeable to a little force. I guess the Clydesdales had been a little anxious in the past but they are used to their new home now. Fun cache, especially way up here! TFTC!

WingsAndTales finally had time to go find her tribute cache and we headed up the very familiar Dewey trail. Shortly after passing ernie66's "A Grassy Knoll" we were startled by a noise only a large beast would make. Turns out it was just GoMRT planting another cache. So we became the beta testers. Between the very clever handiwork of RPieperCO for the housing, and the imagination of GoMRT for its contents, they put together a winner! And the day was so incredibly hot, we were all wishing that the contents were real. Definitely deserves a favorite point. Thanks for the fun!
