GC2D140 Multi-cache Multi on Mount Falcon
Type: Multi | Size: Regular Regular | Difficulty: 3 out of 5 | Terrain: 3.5 out of 5
By: beatenbyjacks @ | Hide Date: 08/07/2010 | Status: Available
Country: United States | State: Colorado
Coordinates: N39° 38.208 W105° 14.330 | Last updated: 08/30/2019 | Fav points: 0
Needs maintenance 

Coordinates listed are simply where the clue box USED TO be. Please follow the 6 ones listed.

Overall the cache will take 2+ hours to complete and you will hike all across the western part of Mount Falcon for a total of roughly 8 miles (thanks sassydil).
There are over a dozen caches on Mount Falcon so take along some other coordinates as you will pass a few while finding mine!
Bring a pen, you will need to write down the clues!
This cache is a 6 part multi cache. I would park in the first lot on the West side of the park, as it is closer to the first location and most of the cache is on the west side of the park.
Once you find the first small box with camo tape, it will have small cards with 6 coordinates on it, all cards are the same. Take one, but please return the cards when finished. Each clue will bring you to the location of a small camo capped PVC pipe. Check out the pictures for more assistance. The pipes are not far off trails, so you do will not need to trek into the forest for anything. Inside each pipe will be one piece of the final coordinate. You will have to collect all 6 clues in order to complete the coordinates.

hint: I would follow the clues in order listed below, even though you will backtrack a little from the first to the second.
The final cache is a small Geocache container.

FTF: sassydil - and on her birthday! Congrats.

I had fun with this one. I was out here 13 months ago with my sister and my niece. We didn't quite follow directions and went out of order. Some of these were really well hidden and we had to work for it. We managed to find 4 of them on the first go round. When I got home, I realized these 4 were enough to work with and came up with a few possibilities. Narrowed it down to 2 choices, and one was more logical than the other. The little one wanted to come out here hiking, and I decided to give the coordinates a try. Sure enough, they worked! Excited to sign the log on this one - thanks for the multi and the smiley. Find #3502.

We said we’d be back and we’re back. All 6 waypoint caches are in good shape and right where they are supposed to be, as is the prize cache. Great hunt in an awesome place. Had a blast with my boy. This one gets a favorite for difficult mad fun! The trackable is missing though .

Ok, even though this is a DNF for us today, we were successful in finding the containers with coordinates at waypoints 1, 5, and 6. Wulff Pack said he found containers 2, 3, and 4 back in July, so while these are proving challenging, we think these are all still good for caching. We’ll be back!

A frustrating day with this multicache. First the card cache with information about this multi is missing. I had also been to the first point a few months back with no luck. Decided to try it again but it doesn't seem to be here. Point 2 was a search of around 20 minutes. No good! Same with spot 3 and 4. I was hoping if I had found one cache, I would be able to see how the others were hidden. I hope the owner will recheck this multi soon or I will have to recommend it disabled. Please maintain this cache!

3rd trip to find this one and came up empty again. First time I mistakenly went to the posted coordinates. Second time I found stages 2, 3, and 4, but not #1. Unfortunately, two out the three I have found have little value in solving for the final. Looked for Stage 1 again today. GZ was where I was last time and I looked under the 4 closest targets again, but found nothing that resembled stages 2, 3 and 4. You might want to check on this one.

Fun longer cache, great ending. Didn't find #2 of the multi. Took coin - going to drop near Great Sand Dunes NP.

Geocacher fail. I couldn't find the first stage.

Last find for today after a tour around the open space.

Fun set of containers to hunt for and nice spot for the final!

I dropped off a geocoin.

Thanks for the multi cache!
