This cache is an army green container located behind the old Carson City Townsite at an elevation of 11,640 feet. This is a favorite spot of my family as we visit it every year! We have seen moose, deer, elk and chipmunks almost every time we go! It is a beautiful, peaceful spot especially early in the morning.Take the Alpine Loop towards Cinnamon Pass. About 9 miles down the loop there will be a sign on the left for Carson City. Follow this road to the top till you see the old historical town. 4WD is recommended. Cache is located behind the town about 80-100 yards. FYI - GPS signal was weakened some by all of the trees.
We've dropped off the Germany Geocoin in this cache. The Geocoin's mission is to be together with outdoor-cachers. Please post a photo with you (in outdoor cloths)and the coin.
We visit this area every year and will maintain this cache.
