Went all the way down and back around and nothing. Hopefully the creek didn't swallow this one

Found this cache after a little confusion. Very Nice hide!! Watch out for people camping here. I was getting asked a lot of questions as to what we were doing. I think after explaining what Geocaching is they understood. They did not follow us to the cache but stayed at there camp site. Everything looked good.

I got within 8 feet of GZ and said, "oh no he didn't". Yes he did and it was a little tough for this 76 year old body, but once this close there is no giving up. TFTC

2:40:00 PM We are visiting from Dallas and staying in Salida this week. Today we took a bit of an "acclimation hike" part of the way up Shavano. Afterward we went after this one. We had a fun walk over to this cache. I dumped my pack and electronics before making the final bit of the journey to this cache. Fun stuff. Found it secure and left it the same way. Enjoyed the falls along the way.

I signed the log. Thanks, cacheclique, for placing this cache for me to find.

Beautiful place along this great fast moving stream. Photo opportunities galore!
Wish more cachers could see how this cache is placed, the container and contents as well as the placement are how the original caching was meant to be I believe. KUDOS! TNLN

We avoided the fall, but fortunately the water did not! A beautiful spot to check out this afternoon. Thanks for the cache and location.
