This is our second cache named by one of our six year old sons, when they were six over 10 tens ago. Park at N40 25.204 and W105 17.118. Take the Nature Trail. It is a three stage multi-stage cache intended for families and geocachers alike. Round trip is about 1.5 miles long and takes about 1 1/2 hours at a steady pace.
Phones don't work up here. Make sure to print off the paperwork before coming out. The mountains can play tricks on GPS systems, so remember to walk from a couple directions if you are having any trouble.

Stage One is a virtual where you find a number at the location that is used to complete the coordinates for Stage Two. The cache ends at Stage Three in an ammo box.

Original contents include a stuffed animal,tin box, two whistles, and a few kids' meal toys.

You will need a pencil to record coordiantes along the way and to sign the log.

Find Stage 1 at the following coordinates. N 40 25.310 and W105 17.620. The clue for where to find Stage 2 is located on a pole at the coordinates.

Stage 1: Virtual: Here you will find a clue to help complete the coordinates for where to find Stage 2. Replace the letters with the three digit number (A,B,C) to complete the following coordinates.
NAC 25.A81 and W1C5 1B.BCB.

Stage 2: Camouflaged Pill Bottle: Here you will find the coordinates to the final cache.

Enjoy the hike!

Found with Cache U on a lovely family walk along the nature trail. We were confused at stage 1, until we read the write-up and realized where the real stage 1 is. TNLNSL; thanks for the fun!

Found with Sam_I_AM. We were a little worried since it's been 4 months from the last find, but everything is in great shape. We had fun walking the nature trail on a beautiful day. Thanks for the cache!

Beautiful day for caching! Nice leg stretcher :) took a few to find the second stage, but sitting still and staring helps sometimes. Final stage was an easy find and good finish. Tnln, TFTC!

Took a few days since I made some stupid mistakes. Some guys were smoking on the hut roof, but they won't muggle it. Overall, good cache for my first multi.

We had a good time doing this multi. We had trouble with the second waypoint, but if we had read the hint it would have been much easier. Thanks for placing. Out with ctjazz22 and logged as Team H.
