On the way to Quartz Quarry Cache
This cache is just off of The Colorado Trail on your way to the Quartz Quarry Cache. I enjoyed the journey to the Quartz cache so much that I thought I would set one as an incentive to get up here and see it. Parking is available at South Platte Colorado Trail Trailhead. Steep with switchbacks. Totally worth it because the views, history, and geology along the way are completely, entirely, and totally worth it!!!!

It was totally worth it for me grab this cache and complete another ray of the 360 degree challenge. It was a longer hike then I thought it was going to be. Almost no snow and just a little ice here and there. Thank you for the placement!

On way way back down I was able to find this one.

I put it back were I found it, but I think it is not were it started out.

Thanks for the hide!

We were out finishing up the caches for the roadtrip and made the short hike up to the quartz mine. It was a great day to be walking the trail and only saw a few others on the trail today. Grabbed this one on the way back down. Nice hide and the cache was in good shape. Took nothing, signed the log and left yen. Thanks for placing this cache so we can play!
