This is my first cache and I think it’s a good one. I’m calling it Ski In Ski Out because one, it’s located on the Snowmass Ski Area, and two, in the winter you can approach the hiding place on skis. I may have to do some adjusting as the snow gets deeper. As for the summer, it’s in a great place for hikers and mountain bike riders. The double star rating is true to form because a seeker of caches will have to ski, hike, or play Frisbee Golf on the mountain to find this cache. But if one does these things, it is a relatively easy cache to find. It is a regular size ammo can. A small hint is in order because the GPS signal is weak because of trees. So the hint is “From the North corner of the Bears Den, look West and walk.” There will be one more hint in the encrypted area. So have fun with my cache and please put it back in the spot it is in now for others to enjoy. Also please conceal it as it is. Thanks,-----------Wigs

Might be easy during summer but during winter it does require a little bit of poking through the snow. Very good cache!

Tftc, love to ski and cache, so to have both combined is just awesome, in great shape, signed log, replaced as found.

Found it. I'm color blind so it took a minute.

TFTC! Nice. TB drop. The only TB that was in the cache when I found it was the tomato.

Mr & Mrs JW came to visit our offspring, who is working here. The three bears hiked straight up the slope in mid summer, it was so hot, we couldn’t bear it! Skiing down it in mid winter is much easier!)
Thanks to the hint it was an easy find, we were bearly here two minutes before Mummy Bear found it!
TFTC

This cache has been a favorite for a long time and CO appears to be inactive. I would like to see it survive so did some major housekeeping - took the container indoors to dry completely, cleaned out all the damp & musty contents, added a new log book, and a silica gel dessicant pack. Hopefully it can keep going for years to come.

One of my favorite caches in the Snowmass area. Have a "Flying Tomato" TB (in honor of Shaun White, the Olympic Snowboarder) that wants to be in ski areas, so came back to drop it off. Cache found out in the open, not closed, and contents soggy. Hid better, even with so very little snow.... TFTC!

This was work for a big man but a worthwhile find.

The best skiing was on the Burn today. Neither icy or slushy. Best views on this glorious blue sky day were from the top of Elk Camp.
