Cache that is located about 30 ft from Colorado Trail and yet accessible from the County Road (about 80 ft) down a small hill. Accessible only while road is open. Not 4x4 road but SUV recommended. Park along road w/ semi level terrain.
OldNo7MedicineShow was taken to this place on Labor Day weekend by Breanna and it is a "first cache" placed by a "newbie" to the sport. She wanted it to be more accessible so we didn't put it at high altitude and made it accessible to many.

She really liked the view of "Cache Creek" valley from here! Take Chaffee County Road 398 behind Granite Store to the west about 5 miles. The Fall colors are starting to become INCREDIBLE!

Continuing up this road will take you from 9500 ft in altitude to 12,000 ft in Altitude (4x4 vehicle at that stage)

Painted ZipLoc plastic container.
Original contents include a OldNo7 FTF Card and $1, a small Yo-Yo, a carbeener Pen combo, a freshwater native mussel shell (the good kind), a small pencil and logbook.

Congratulations Aardvarkson3 for FTF!

We be two ole farts (and a dog) from Arkansas. We left home in mid August and have vowed to not return til we have a 1,000 caches in the bag. We left with 150+ replacement caches - if yours is cracked or wet, we will replace it. If there are 3+ DNF's we will replace it.
We appreciate each and every smiley that we get! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Beautiful day to be on Lost Canyon Rd geocaching. We didn't take a thing. We left a key chain with pink boxing gloves to celebrate 20 year cancer survivor and army man to honor our nephew serving in the army. TFTC
