This is my first cache placed in the dark. This one is a great place to sit and think of someone special to you. I'm sure the view is great but all I saw was city lights in the distance and a full moon.

One of the craziest caches I have ever went after definitely gets a favorite point! Tftc:)

After 3 of us searching for 30 mins we found it with some picture assistance, matching the rocks. Surprised the difficulty is not a little higher due to the climbing required. TFTC

I'm not sure why this has gone so long without a find with the road that is fairly easy to reach within .2 from a great spot to park to the NW of the cache. Anyway.....

I had a nice drive on a warm day. I don't often wear shorts, but I figured this wasn't going to be a difficult hike or climb, so I went with the shorts and headed out.

THe smell in this area was absolutely amazing! With the shade, the heat was minimal.

Sadly I lost my CamelBack bladder when I set it down a somehow punctured it. I had a few other water bottles, so I didn't go without water, but it did cancel my continued hike down the hill and back up for "In Your Face" (I decided to drive around and grab the starter puzzle at Florence Park.)

So, on to my arrival at this one.
I don't want to take away from the adventure of finding this cache. However, I will say it took me WAY, WAY, WAY out of my comfort zone. I was actually very proud of myself when I decided to go for it. Probably not the best idea as I was alone and had no one to help if anything did happen. I can see how the CO got his name.

THe cache was just setting there, nothing covering it. I would figure after 6 years, it would have been covered with debris. It was also still well sealed and the log was dry.

Thanks for the cache and the adrenaline rush of this awesome adventure!

Great location and a beautiful drive here with the aspens turning gold. Found the cache in good shape and the coordinates accurate - you can remove the "needs maintenance" attribute on the cache page as all is well. Thanks for showing me this interesting area, and TFTC!

Well the Cache is there it is not an easy find and the coordinates were about 10 feet off. So I included a couple of photos and adjusted the coordinates. Good luck
