This cache is an exercise in making do. I had left the Blazer with only one cache in the day pack, and this spot seemed to deserve a cache. I had some ziplocks and specimin cards for my mushroom collection project and a lab marker and pencil. Maybe the next visitor would be kind enough to bring a better container?(I am guessing Larry or Julia? Maybe Steve) Anyway, the baggy is under a small stack of rocks and should be an easy find. More about this area and hike can be found in the rg028 description Update: Cache legaled up by the container installed by the world renown FTF Queen Doglover3pups and accomplisses. Thanks for fixing this.

On a whirlwind trip up to Washington state, getting just a few caches along the way. Out fro Fort Collins exploring the back country past Cache la Poudre river; beautiful areas.

Did the loop for these two caches but it went from blue skies to dark and thunder in my 2.5 hour journey of discovery (so I skipped rg027). Seems like I was generally on trails when I was not on the roads...

Spent 30 minutes hunting this one, including going over edge (which is a bit precarious) and down a tier or two, with no joy. All of the CO's other caches I did today had great coords and were quick finds, so I dropped a red medicine container (like a phone container with bandaids) in a place close to my gz. CO: Let me know if this does not work for you. Tftc!

I've been hoping to get to this cache and the other cache near the summit of Bull Mountain for a year now (as well as to RG027), but never have taken the time, until today. I had done insufficient advance map work, so rather than drive the Bull Mountain Road in to an acceptable parking location, I parked near Sand Creek Pass and hiked in from the south, hiking up the steep >1,000-foot escarpment on the south side of Bull Mountain. This is the same way that Denali Queen, Silver Trekker, and my puppy Teewinot and I used in our original climb of Bull Mountain several years ago, before the caches had been placed. That climb was in the spring, when the Bull Mountain Road was still impassable due to snow drifts.

So my puppy Teewinot and I simply repeated that route today, taking in the two caches and having a marvelous time. Signed both logs, soaked in the great views, and appreciated the day very much. Thanks for these great caches!

FTF! Hubby and his sister the flatlander and I made the trek up here. The only lonely pup Priscila also joined us. The flatlander lives at sea level in Ohio and we bring her hiking at 10 thousand feet! Found the plastic bag and put it in a green decon box and replaced all the rocks. We had lunch very near the cache sight and worked our way back to the truck. Thanks for a great day in the mountains. TFTC
