This is an empty wooden jewerly box located on the highpoint of the saddle between Peaks 9 and 8.  Take the drive or hike up the county road from the Breckenridge ski resport.  I suggest parking at the Mercury Super Chair 9 and walking up if you are unable to drive all the way.

While hiking I came across this wooden box on top of the mound of rocks on the saddle below Peak 8. It was empty, so I thought it might be an existing Geocache. I can find no record of one, so let's make it one. It is an easy find, if you can make the climb to get to it. 12,395'

FTF with Java Chip! Found the box but nothing inside. Put a piece of paper inside for a log, but did not have a baggie to protect it from the elements. Put a rock on top of the box to try and keep the lid from opening. TFTC!
