That hilltop is no joke. We arrived quite breathless. The views are something else up here. We found the cache fairly easy. Something must have leaked inside the container. We didn't see the Poppy Geocoin. Tftc. We dropped another TB.

Right when I arrived at GZ it started to rain with some accompanying lighting. After signed the log I made a beeline to the car. TFTC.

I took the hard way straight up from the road. Didn't know a trail came in from the other way. Awesome views, tftc!

Only .13 from the parking area - no problem. Oh boy, what a climb - the oxygen is a little thin at this altitude. Happy Anniversary! We recently celebrated our 36th.

Joyful Noise and I were in Colorado to vacation and meet up with Allison Wonderland on her bicycle ride across America and had to grab a few caches while we were there.

Fantastic view. I give this one a favorite point just because it is old enough that people actually wrote interesting things in the log book. Take a moment to read some of them.

On a camping road trip with Jeepers-GasFree. We saw lots of mountains, lots of rain, and had a great week on vacation.

After spending the night at the Taylor Reservoir, we headed off over the pass early in the morning. Saw a moose and some deer as we headed up the mountain. Stopped here for a quick cache. Beautiful view!

Found with GP9/14 while on our honeymoon in Colorado. Had to stop for this one since it's our Honeymoon. This cache has the most AMAZING views. Love hiking around here. Pictures don't do it justice. Thanks so much for this cache. It's one of our favorites.
