DURING HEAVY SNOW, SOME OF THE CACHES MIGHT BE DIFFICULT TO LOCATE, NOT ALL. I DON'T WANT TO SHUT THIS DOWN FOR THE WINTER, SO PLEASE USE DISCRETION GOING OUT. HAPPY CACHING!

Welcome to the Millennium Power Trail.

This is the longest continues stretch of open trail left in all of Denver area to create an Urban Power Trail. It's not as long as those out on the plain's, but it makes up for it in proximity. I have made a variety of cache styles, sizes and difficulty levels to keep it interesting. So don't get to comfortable with any one cache style.

The terrain varies from shaded park to open grass fields, flat ground to hills. Be ready for a long walk or bring a bike and join the high speed muggles coming and going. Bring water and a flashlight in the event your going close to dark, no street lights out here after dark, other than the park itself.

On the rare occasion that I leave the path, please be extra careful not to trample the area. I have tried to stay out of the tall grass for the most part, but a couple hides are just over the mowing line. I have done some tree hides only where I had no better choice, all of them are accessible from the grass, no need to get scratched up to badly climbing in.

The trail can be accessed by more than one location depending on which way your coming.

#1 The parking lot at the starting point, The Village Green Park, at Dayton St. & Dam Rd.. It's open dusk to dawn, don't let your car get trapped.

#2 The park and ride just east of Yosemite and I-225, park in the lot and walk over the bridge to cross I-225.

#3 The park and ride at Parker Rd. and I-225. Look for the trail access going under the freeway/light rail to the southeast of the parking lot.

This geocacher reported that the cache might be missing.

Like so many before us, it was a DNF for KH and me today.

Spent about 15 minutes trying to locate this bugger with the geosister but came up empty. Give the number of DNFs and it being a 1.5 / 1.5 I suspect it is gone. CO should either replace ASAP, disable or archive.

Started this series yesterday actually, but unexpected got sick so came back today to grab the rest. NTM and I decided to do these caches out of order just for the sake of time--we were planning to do them in order yesterday, but that did not really work out. It took us about 3.5 hours to get through them and back to the car. The weather was great, and we love winter caching because we do not like running into snakes on our hikes and the vegetation is more clear. Anyway, the majority of the caches in this series were in great condition considering their locations. Thanks a lot for placing these and helping us explore the big city of Denver.


Joined all the other DNFs on this one.

I came up to Denver on a day off and thought about doing some caching through the area, after getting my errands ran I looked around for some caches that were close by each other to nab some numbers. I found a great place to park and headed out pen and phone in hand. Lots of fun caches were found along the day. Denver has some great sites to see. I love coming up here to cache as there are always unfound caches up here! Thanks for having these caches out here for all of us to find.

I looked all over for this one and could not find anything. If it get replaced I might be back, but next time I am bringing a pushbike! Woah!
