Small cache container at the top of Mt. Glennon. Awesome views in
every direction!
Two rocks cover the cache container. Please replace the cache as
you found it. Thanks!
There was a wild fire on Mt. Glennon this week that burned
approximately 100 acres over a three day period (8/2/10-8/4/10).
While some places are totally scorched, other parts weren't
affected at all. There are lots of dead trees and ash in the burn
area...but this cache is farther to the north and close to the top
of the ridge. While you're nearby, you might want to look for Flat
Road Up a Steep Hill and the KK1849 benchmark. There's also a
non-geocache log at a point a little north of the benchmark where
you can record your ascent. The cache container is a small
Lock-n-Lock container big enough for a log book, a pencil and a few
small items. When placed, it contained an emergency Jefferson
County Open Space dog leash, a lanyard (that would work well for a
GPS), and a geocoin that needs to be moved along. There's also an
unactivated travelbug as the FTF prize.
Congrats to outdrlvr201 for claiming the FTF!
