Ninth in the series. You are almost there now.
This cache is part of a series of caches we placed on a 29 mile ATV loop near Del Norte, CO. We call it the Quad Quest. All containers are 50 cal. ammo cans. You can do them all in one day but it is strongly recommended that you plan on 2 days to do the loop. There is a cabin just west of QQ6 that is a great place to stay if nobody is there already. Take a tent just in case. If you find all 12 of these you will have the coordinates to the Quad Quest Puzzle Cache. These are all worth doing on their own but getting all of them is even better. We spent two wonderful days hiding these along with lostagain83. We hope you enjoy finding them as much as we enjoyed hiding them.

This was the hardest one, I think. And we thought #11 was in the rocks! The trail was a bit hard too We came from the north, so went down the switchbacks. We ride 2 up on a Kawasaki Prairie, and our riding partners ride on a Polaris 500 actually designed for two riders. BUT, it has a longer wheelbase, so the switchback turns were pretty scary (not to mention the trail tilt). We returned from our successful cache hunt to find them pointed back up the hill--"no more of this for us" they said. But we REALLY needed number 8, so on we went, while they went back up to rest on top. Thanks for the exciting ride!

This was quite the field of boulders to climb around on searching for the cache. Thanks.

LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT. You always bring us to the greatest places. On the way up to the cache my camera, SWAG and lighter fell out of the pouch on my sweatshirt into a crevice. Oh, woe is me. After finding the cache I was delighted to find not one but three lighters within. But alas, my SWAG is in the crevice. We signed the log, took the lighters, moved a 200 lb. boulder and I crawled into the hole and retrieved the camera. We left a package of kleenex, not in the cache, but in a hole about 20 feet below the cache. If someone a lot smaller than me wants to trade for it, they should email me for coords. HA HA. Thanks for another fun hide. SL
