Placed with permission of Extension Office. We bring our son here to ride his bike, the trail is short and awesome because it's surrounded by tons of plants that smell wonderful: Mint, Lillis, Hollyhocks and more!

If there is a race going on at the BMX course that's behind the arboretum check it out! My son participates in a Strider Bike race at 2 years old and he loves it!

This cache was an old sandwich meat container with cammo duct tape on i, but it was muggled 3 days after I published it, so we went with a much sneakier container when we replaced it. Not Whizkid sneaky, still EASY & still in the same location.

It's in the landscaping, please be courteous of the plants, please replace it the way you found it so that no one thinks it's something suspicious/dangerous.

Started with various items for the kids including googly eyes! Some ephemera, a multi-tool, hollyhock & blue corn seeds, magnet body light, & Patriot Coin for FTF!

Congrats to Palueefox for FTF

Came to the fair today, and grabbed a couple caches since we were here. While I was searching, there were two muggles nearby searching for several rabbits who had apparently been turned loose in the arboretum. I aided in their search and made the find after they'd left. Signed log and replaced as found. Thanks for the cache!

Visiting the Mesa County Fair and discovered Grand Junction had an arboretum. Who knew? Nice little area you've brought us to and for thank, thanks. We found TWO logs and containers at GZ, so we signed both to be sure and replaced both. Both containers and logs seem to be getting the job done, so cache on!
