RATTLESNAKES Hybernate approximately November-April; Not for the faint-of-heart! WARNING, green diamond back pit viper seen & photographed near placement!

I DO NOT suggest messing around with the location during the SUMMER if you are not qualified to handle snakes.

I DO NOT HAVE ANY BONE FIDE INTEREST IN THIS PROPERTY THE ACCESS EASEMENTS SUROUNDING THE AREA OR THE SNAKES, but there is no reason for anybody to get hurt.
Parking along Soda Lakes Rd offers two approaches, one from the east at the end of the barrier & following the cliff face, or directly over the creek.

It’s June. We are skipping this one. DNL - did not look. Could CO please check on it when the weather gets appropriate.

No finds this year. Leaf debris is several feet deep in likely places. A good hint would be useful.

No luck with this one today and din't see that coords were off and too many spaces to look

Difficult find. Besides snake possibility, it's hard to access; lots of hiding spots and sketchy GPS. Located about 30-35 feet West of most reliable GZ coordinates. Thx. K7

Out grabbing some caches on a nice Sunday afternoon with Penhead63. Cache is still there and in good shape, but just a little West of the coords. TNLN - TFTC!

Took a bit of searching with one of us on one side of the creek and one on the other. The cliff caused some bouncing of coords but we eventually made the find. Happy to report no snakes sighted!!

Faint of heart, I guess.

No snakes this late in the year.
Took some time finding this one.
But cache is in good shape.

Greetings from Philomath, OR! This is my last day in area of a 3 week business trip with geocaching squeezed in when I could. Today went out geocaching with my brother, Youkfish, up in the Ft Collins area. After lunch he took me over to look for this one since I wanted a UV Attribute. We got to GZ and made the find! TFTH!

Tried again today. No joy.

GPS took me up to the top of the cliff, then back down it again, then all over the place. I gave up eventually.

Cache is still here and in good shape. Found while hiking and caching with bhob. Got lucky with finding in first spot I looked. Luckily no snakes but I was hoping for a cool photo. Thanks.
Found using a seventh galaxy!
