James Finlayson was in many of Laurel and Hardy's films.  He was mostly bald and also had two other interesting ideosyncracies.  One was how he would bug one eye out in scorn usually focused on L&H.  The other was his use of the word "doh".  Homer SImpson was modelled after Finn, as he was known.

This cache is just off the Colorado Trail and should be fairly easy to find - once you get there..

You can get most of the way via bicycle. This cache is just off the Colorado Trail.  You can hike or bike. The parking waypoint is for where Raleigh Peak Road starts. If you start there, you'll have to figure out how to get over to or back from the CT.  From the map or satellite view, there are a couple of convenient connector routes.

A beautiful morning to find a Trail Mix cache and I extended it to the Chairs for the fun of it. Is this the CO's "closest to trail" caches?! Cheers!

Fun day with daddy, and Bhob. New Trailmix equals new adventure. Animjason got quite the workout since I wanted carried more than riding in the wagon.

Thanks cajrrman! Logged Finn from a ninth galaxy using c:geo!

FTF!! Woo Hoo! Headed up here after scoring a nice smiley on the latest Trail Mix edition back down the road. Spent some time digging through the snow, and finally had to peek at the hint to zero in. After a few minutes I had the cache in hand, stamped my name (upside down) snapped a pic, and took off for the next one! TFTC Cajrrman!
