Jenny Lake sits just under the Needle Eye Tunnel.
Dad and I went camping for the first time in probably 15 years. We chose to come up to Rollins Pass East because it's a place we know, and is beautiful up here. While the Road is not always easy, we saw a Chevy van up by the Yankee Doodle Lake (just under this one), so access is not that difficult.

The cache is placed nearby our campsite over a nice little spot. Good Rainbow Trout for dinner! Cache is a camo-taped cylindrical tin container about 8" high.

We took the short route here from the Needle Eye Tunnel, a lot shorter but a heck of a bushwhack. The Cache is very rusty and was full of water, the log was fairly dry and we dumped the water and let the contents dry before putting it back. We removed some destroyed papers and a top full of rusty water. We had to use a pick axe to tap off the lid because it was rusted shut. It has been cleaned up and returned to it's spot. I hope to come back in a month or so with my wife and kids and will bring new ziplocks and a note book just in case. TFTC Sapper489

It's been more than a year since this one was found. The tundra was still snow-free today, but a recent snowfall still covered the shady areas around the shrubs. I didn't see the container, but I suppose it could be under the snow drifts. Beautiful area!
