Great view of Boulder and other communities to the East. Drive right to it. Email me with the answer to the question below to validate your visit.
According to GC1D37, Boulder prohibits caches on public lands. Since there are so many wonderful places to visit in Boulder, I am creating a few virtual caches for locals and visitors alike.

This site offers a mountainside view of Boulder. There are, however, certain times of the day when you may not park here. Look at the sign and email me with the No Parking times in the format: NN:NN XX to N:NN XX, where each N is a digit and each X is a letter. Since there is no log to sign, this will validate your visit. If you want a reply, please include your email address.

Enjoy the view!

New to the area, so I’m out doing some exploring and letting the caches lead the way. A cache like this one is my favorite part about geocaching: it brings me to beautiful spots that may have taken me much longer to discover on my own, or may have never discovered at all. What a view!

Used to come here every time I came in from St. Louis but I haven't for a while. Glad this virtual brought me back.

Greetings from Beautiful British Columbia! Off on a 10 day, 9 state geo-adventure with kteeeee, Laphamclan and MissPeach13. Many thanks to all of the COs for placing these caches for us to find and adding to our fun day. We used our CCC (Canadian Caching Crew) stamp or initials on all of the logs.

Today we headed to the oldest cache in Colorado and then changed our original plans to go to Mt. Evans as the road was closed due to snow and we were unable to do the caches there We went through the city of Denver instead and stopped in Fort Collins for the night.

Our family is in Colorado on vacation. Today we arrived in Boulder and decided to go see the views from Flagstaff mountain. After the winter storm yesterday we expected a lot of beautiful scenery provided the roads were open. We were not disappointed!

This was our first stop up the mountain to get a parking permit. I noticed the VC here and checked around for the answer. Afterward we admired the view and then continued our journey up. Thanks for maintaining this virtual!

On a Fall trip through Colorado doing some caching and seeing the sites. A beautiful scenic drive through Rocky Mountain National Park. Visiting the downtown areas of Boulder, Denver, Castle Rock and Colorado Springs to name a few. We enjoyed a beautiful hike on the Barr trail at the Summit of Pikes Peak. It was a wonderful trip with quite a bit of caching thrown in along the way. Thanks for the fun. Answer sent.
