This is located at the listed coordinates. To log you must have found 66 caches with the words summit, mountain, mount, peak, Mtn. or Mt. in the cache name. You may provide proof in any way you wish. This cache is placed in honor of Ernie66 with whom I've had the pleasure to find many mountain caches.

There is an unactivated TB for the FTF as well as some other swag. The actual D/T for the hide is 1.5/2 and the rating for the listing is based on the 66 finds you will need to qualify.

CONRATULATIONS TO ERNIE66 AND ESTES01 ON THE FTF!!

I got a chance to check on my caches and because they are not in trees, they are all safe, even though the logging operation continues.

Wings and Tales alerted me of the following - There is a massive logging/tree thinning operation going on in the area. There hasn't been too much cutting here yet but many trees are marked. I will get this one activated when the work is done. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Thanks to my recent finds of the other two caches in this series I'm up to 74 qualifying finds, and I didn't even have to use MT and MTN in assembling my SUMMITS CHALLENGE bookmark list. That list has been linked to this cache. This is another great challenge, fun if a bit 'challenging' in reaching the container, and well worth the work needed to assemble that bookmark list; FDF favorite point and TFTC!

Another one that is tough to get to but easy to find. I have the necessary finds, but will have to wait until reach home to produce a proper bookmark list. Very good challenge and TFTC in advance!

I signed because I could and was in the area for the other two. I'll keep the effort going for this one too.

Out caching with FeartheFish which means me driving his butt all over the place. In the area for some Jim Reeb caches and FtF had qualified for this one so we stopped and got it. I signed in case I ever qualify. Easy find. TFTC!

I signed this cache a few months ago and was finally able to complete it. TFTC
