Stopped by while in the area today. Checked out the monument and watched some rafters paddle by. Amazed the lilac bushes were still in bloom near by. Thanks for keeping this old cache alive and kicking. Answers have been sent.

We are staying in Central City and planned a drive to Vail today. We stoped in Idaho Springs to pick up any information at the Visitors Center. This cache was just across the road. New landscaping and hardscaping is currently occuring in this area. I am sure it will look much better a year from now.
