This cache is placed at one of the best views on the Flat Tops. Standing at an altitude of 10,000', you can look to the bottom of Deep Creek Canyon over 2000' below.

The container is camoed, small; about the size of a pb jar, and has room for small trading items.

Thanks to House52 for recommending the location - you were right, it did need a cache.

Congratulations to Sponge Bob Raiders on the FTF!

Taking a second DNF on this one 9 years after my first.
Got to within 1.5 miles of the cache which is a bit closer than I made it last time.
After that the snow was still too deep even with the Jeep.
Pushed it a bit to get to that point and finally decided if I had a chance of turning back that was it.

Still a spectacular location and a very fun drive.

I guess maybe next time but I need to visit CO later than April or May.
