Take a trip up Rampart Range Road and get great views. No Puzzle involved just a nice twist on a cache with extras

Elevation is over 8100 feet but you can drive to within yards of the cache. Gravel and sometimes washboard road. Watch for traffic in opposite direction. Suggest keeping speed below 16MPH. No parking area so keep well to the edge of the road. Suggest you park at the shooting range and hike the road the rest of the way or proceed 1/2-mile beyond cache for turn-around. Cover the cache the way you find it. Don't try this one in the dark or if lightning.

Besides a ammo can cache, you may see something you are not familiar with.

Take camera and binoculars. Outstanding views in all directions. Also bring along some trash bags - CACHE IN, TRASH OUT! You'll see what I mean.

The seasonal closure is in effect, so there wasn't traffic on the road. And not much other activity, actually. It was a great day to hike up to this one and enjoy the views. Thanks for keeping this cache going.

This could be my favorite cache of all times. Almost didn't try it since it's labeled mystery. Love it. Tftc

Here from KY visiting my daughter. I get to geocache while she works! I think I understood about the arrow. Didn’t find anything at the bonus coordinates in the hint. Thanks for placing this one.

Which ever gpsr I was using went a little nuts here - the pointer was way off... but I navigated to the cord's of something else & made the double. !
One spot of sun !

I picked up this nice cache while on a short run down Rampart Range road. I was surprised last month to learn that this road closes in the winter, so I was glad to get the opportunity to come here day. Fortunately, I was able to make the find without any drama. Thanks to the CO for placing this nice cache for everyone to find and keeping this old one alive, TFTC.

We definitely took the wrong approach to this one. Lots of brush. Glad we had Band-Aids. Beautiful views from up here. We took both TBs and left one. Thanks for showing us this spot.
