a stop along the Ouray Perimeter Trail
Hiking the Ouray Perimeter Trail is a great way to spend a few hours exploring the area around this scenic mountain town. Along the way you may be visiting some of your favorite nearby landmarks, while undoubtedly discovering new ones.



This series of caches is our way of trying to entice more people to step out on the trail and enjoy the tour! Caches are all small so BYOP to sign the log.

The entire loop is about 4.5 miles... do the whole route or any segment. We started at the Baby Bathtubs trailhead off the Amphitheater campground road and went clockwise around town... but you may begin at any of several points and proceed in either direction.... so I will leave the series unnumbered.

Put on your hiking boots, take some water, a snack or lunch, hit the trail, and ... enjoy the amazing views!

All caches are located near the trail and should not require extensive cross country travel. Stay safe. Children should be closely supervised.

Please rehide this cache well so it is not easily seen- right off the trail.

Came up from Box Canon Falls. Was just in time to watch four military jets fly past over the town. Does that happen often? They looked like they were enjoying it, especially the last one which flew a lot lower than the other three. Easy find on a pretty trail with great views of the town and valley—and jets, though that was unexpected!
