This is my first cache hide ever so input would be great. The container is a rubbermaid toolbox grey in color with yellow handle and clip.

terrain is not too bad if you follow the bottom of the valley.

If this is easily findable I will cover it up some but as it is my first hide ever I will keep it kinda easy for now!

This area is very nice however it seems that someone has managed to trash it some. When I have time I will be cleaning the trash out of the area, we got hit by a huge lightning storm placing it WOOHOO! leave the int. trail at N38 51.205 W104 54.450 head up the valley.

Thanks for the cache visiting from Minnesota. Thanks for bringing me to this awesome area via caching. Loved the canyon, beware of the rope is is very frayed these days. The rock formations are stunning. Great hike on the trails and bushwacking....so much fun!

We started at the cemetery. After we followed the trail for a while we started to bush-whack. Up and down and then around. We looked high and low and found it about 30ft off GZ. Last time this one was visited, was almost a year ago. Tftc.

We found the cache in good shape. It's a hike no matter how you approach this one. Park at the Manitou Middle School for best approach. Dropped off a carved stone camel for the next finder to enjoy. We also correctly folded the wadded up American flag that we found in the cache and put it in a small bag to keep it clean and dry. Every American flag should always be treated with the upmost respect.
