Cache is located in a high mountain valley, elevation 11,172 feet. It is east of Keystone and south of Gray's Peak. The cache location is an easy climb uphill (even for children and grandmas) from an unimproved, somewhat rough road. Cars with LOW clearance beware!
This cache is especially for kids. It contains toys placed inside a small ammo can marked on the outside as Grandma's Ruby Gulch Kids' Cache. Please replenish the cache with more toys as you take the originals out. Due to the elevation and location, this cache will most likely be accessible only from late Spring through early Fall.

There is a CHEAP camera inside the box. Take a picture of your kids (or the ones you borrowed), or your whole group for our website. If you want names included on the website, add them to the Log Book - include the exposure number and a brief description of each person. Or send your own digital photo to our email address, sherrylou_k@yahoo.com, for placement on the website. If you use the last of the film, let us know on geocaching.com or by email.

Found with my sister, DaSportsBabe! I just bought a used Isuzu. My first time off roading. I checked out the Pennsylvania Mine. This road is awesome. Great for a beginner like me.

Walked through the locked gate to grab this cache. After enjoying the views, we read the hint and made the find. TFTC.

We visited last June but couldn't make the find. We found it today just before the rain hit us again. Glad to turn this DNF into a smiley!

Out exploring Peru Creek Trail on a beautiful Colorado high country day. Made a few stops along the way, including the Pennsylvania mine. Found this cache in excellent condition. Awesome views all around. SL T4TSmile

I made it!! I ran from our camp to the cache. Over 6 miles...at this altitude and terrain was rough. But TFT hunt.

This is Farmer Dan. He travels with us. You can find him (and us) on Instagram if you'd like to see what we're up to. #ATsNRs

Tried to run up to this one. I made it this close, but the elevation is crazy. Might try again before we leave the area
