Military Aircraft Series.
Park and grab cache off of Co Rd 57, with a bit of an uphill walk. No need to trespass to find the cache. This aircraft may hold the title of all-time favorite, as I have been given private full-scale tour of the cockpit by the pilots, and I have also been privileged to wave one of these out to the runway. Ah, yes, the younger days of me at Nellis AFB...

Didn’t have a pen, wasn’t expecting to cache! But my son had the best idea! Thanks for the find!

Today, after the CITO, I cached around the Larkspur/Palmer Lake/Monument area. There are several caches around that I haven't grabbed and this was the day to change that. During my journey I was enchanted by big blue skies and beautiful views of the mountains.

No problems here. TFTC!
