To reach this cache, you will either need a 4x4 vehicle or enough energy to go for a 0.35 mile hike from parking.

From Highway 66, turn South on CR-47 for a few miles. Eventually you will come to a fork in the road. Take the one on the left. Passenger cars will be able to make it up this road without issue.

For the 4x4 cachers, from the above coords, take a right and head up the hill. There is only 1 moderately "tough" spot, starting at N40 14.903 W105 24.933.
Park your rig at N40 14.781 W105 24.976, then walk the 370 feet to the cache.
The cache is a standard ammo can camo'd and has a Geocaching stencil spraypainted on it. Traditional stuff inside, including a logbook and stash note.

Parked below, then mountain biked up to this cache and a few others. I must have pushed the bike uphill at least half the time. So rugged and steep! The way down was much better. Great ammo box. Thanks.

Out having some fun in Johnny park. I like these larger caches. They're easier for me to find. :)

Vising family nearby and he wanted to show me where he rides. No offroading today so we walked in. Just a bit of snow on the ground. Awesome shape. Favorite for sure. Thanks!

We didn't make it all the way to the parking waypoints because the gates were closed, so the hike was a little longer than anticipated, but not by much. That road sure is sporty even up to the gate, and I doubt I'd have been able to go any farther anyway. Still, it was a nice morning to walk the dog somewhere new, so we ambled up the steep grade to the first of two caches. Cache was in good shape. Fortunately, we found both of them before I fell down and hurt myself on the way back. It's all good. ;)

Path Pacer drove us in to the first gate - not too rough for the Subaru - and we walked in the rest of the way to the cache. Just a few minutes searching and we had the cache. gorgeous first day of spring to be out hiking & caching. TNLNSL TFTC!
