Find County Road 7 and follow it to through and out of Mount Massive Lakes private property. The cache is up the hill left of the road. It's definitely ACROSS Big Union Creek, but it's up to you to figure out where. It's well-hidden but there are definite 'signs' to look out for. A note about terrain difficulty- I managed to hide the cache in a pair of shorts and flip-flops, so for you it may be easier.
The cache is in a clear plastic Tupperware with a white top- *please* make sure the Tupperware is completely sealed when you re-hide the cache. Original contents:Panther-Martin Lure
Leadville Postcard
Pink Powerbait
'Altitude Attitude Adjuster' Shot Glass
Black Obsidian Arrowhead
Block of pyrite
Blue #45 Car
3 Lifesavers mints
a wine cork
3 Yu-Gi-Oh! cards (a contribution from my little bros)That's pretty much it!
Oh, a note- lots and LOTS of bugspray. The skeeters are KILLER.

TFTC. Cache was completely exposed, lid and log book thrown on ground.... sealed cache and hid again. Fun day out 4-wheeling and caching, but wish people would not destroy the caches.

Took the scenic route from Nathrop back home to Lakewood to grab several caches. A little tricky crossing the creek, but I stayed dry and made the find. Cheers!

Our first Jeeping trip to Colorado and we had such a great time. Loved all the wildflowers and all the trails!

Thanks for adding caches to our fun!

Found with rikjaxon on my birthday. We took Amtrak to Denver and rented a 4WD vehicle mostly to find caches above 10,000 elevation to qualify for a challenge that is in the Chicago area. We visited at a great time of year, as the quaking aspen groves were turning their beautiful glowing yellow colors and tourists were at a minimum. We enjoyed some terrific drives through mountain passes and we toured and cached a bit through a few small towns along the way.

Working on a 10k elevation Mountaineering Challenge in our home turf with EPA, we headed from Fairplay for Weston Pass and Leadville in a 4WD to get our qualifiers. Awesome views everywhere here. TFTH!
