Don't try for this cache if the road is wet; you won't make it.
The cache is along V Rd, aka: Sunnyside Rd. It runs about 20 miles from DeBeque to just NE of Molina. A 2wd vehicle would probably make it but the road is a little rough in places. The cache location is about a half mile off of V Rd, down a jeep trail. It makes for a fairly level hike or you can drive to within a hundred feet or so.

The view is pretty nice from here.


Congratulations Pauleefox on the FTF!

Easily found once we got to GZ. We had two plans: Plan A was to come in from Debeque however the road beyond the intersection with T Road became rather muddy. On to Plan B; an approach from the DeBeque Cutoff. Foiled again by No Trespassing signs. In desperation we formulated Plan C; an approach from Molina on the Sunnyside Road; we got as far as the gas facility and walked the remaining 3.7 miles to the cache. It was a gorgeous day for a hike in this beautiful country. We saw no-one the entire day. TN. L:Crikey Fundraiser Geocoin. SL. Many thanks for getting us to this wonderful area. The Hobbits had left for their winter vacation.
