This cache is located on the Highland Canal trail, and from finding this cache, if you keep heading straight after you've crossed the bridge, then you will be able to find a beautiful lake, which seems kind of out of the way, and may not be too easily noticeable from the trail. It is a beautiful place that I think is definitely worth checking out.

 

While this cache has a pencil inside, it might get lost or the tip may be broken off, so I'd still recommend to BYOP.

Congratulations to Kroozer for the FTF

Magnetic. The size is similar to a prescription pill container. The reference point is very important, and it may be below it but still easily accessible.

It was easier when I noticed the coordinates had been updated. Not exactly using magnet attraction in its placement. SL

Coordinates changed from:
N 39° 35.462 W 104° 58.880

Coordinates changed to:
N 39° 35.463 W 104° 58.893

Distance from original: 61.4 feet or 18.7 meters.

The previous coordinates had an inaccuracy, so I decided to re-measure the coordinates and ensure the accuracy was up to par to make it an easier find.

Dear mrdiamond,
I am sorry that you missed out on the FTF. I have decided to upgrade the hint to provide slightly more information, to keep it more aligned with the difficulty. I greatly appreciate your interest in finding this cache, and I greatly recommend that you come to check the spot again to see if you can find it with the additional hint. Thank you for your valuable feedback :)

Looked all over and then expanded my search. There it was! Signed a blank log as FTF at 11:55 AM. Thanks for the new hide near the pretty lake!

I was so looking forward to being FTF on this one but for some reason I just can’t find it. I spent close to an hour looking all over where Ground Zero showed the bit to me I even use the hint with no success
