Came here from Lamar to hike the Homestead Trail. Sat on the big rock by this cache and
ate my jerkey and nuts for lunch. Quite the walk into this cache. Left Travel bug at this location.
We will see how long it stays there. Last cache log was about a year ago! Just me and the cows were there. Ha Thanks for the fun. Loved the rock cabin. Especially, the roof tied down with cables to keep it from blowing away! Off in the not too far distance, (south) you can walk into OK from this cache.
Container is a larger cammo container.

Out with RellyRosie enjoying an absolutely amazing early February day. 78 degrees, light breeze, couldn't ask for any better on the high plains. Found five spots we definitely want to come back to in order to place a few more caches here in the picture canyon area.

What a perfect cache for my first find in Colorado! And a nice job of placing the cache near a "popular" explorer destination, but not where muggles are likely to find it. Left a TB I hauled from California. I feel it will be very safe from unauthorized access. TFTC.

Bretski21, Dustin08 and I came up from the OKC area to grab some caches and do a little exploring for a few days. Oklahoma, Texas, Colorado, and Kansas caches are on the list.
This was one of the caches we grabbed on day 3. Thanks for placing this cache!
Very cool area!
