This cache was repaired on June 19, 2017. New cache container, log book, pens and swag have been placed. 5 TB have been placed in cache. Please grab one and place along your travels and finds. Father Moose, The Tortoise, The Hitchhiker, The Hitchhikers Companion, and Come Together. Happy Caching and thank you for letting me know this needed maintenance everyone that visited.
A beautiful drive to the top of this pass with a lot of wildlife on and near the road, this cache is located near Lost Lake on Kebler Pass between Crested Butte and Paonia, CO., so be sure to take your fishing pole and a lunch. Watch for muggles as they are hiking about this beautiful terrain. If you are heading to locate the "Tylers Waterfall Cache", this is a quick stop along the way. Follow CR 12 for 15 miles and turn right on CR 706 going a distance of 0.8 of a mile where parking is available at 38 53.089 N/107 12.850W. The trees are heavy overhead so your GPS Unit may bounce. Just turn into the campground and park... you will be on your own from there. The cache is in a large sealed coffee creamer can with a log. Items placed in cache: "Charlie Broown Looking For Woodstock" TB, Luck of The Irish Lotto Ticket, Waterproof Matches, Spool of Yellow Thread, Isle of Capri Sewing Kit, Buttons, Budda Figure,and a Peace and Love Ring. ************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************ CONGRATS to MylesnMary on the FTF!

WOW the coords are way off!!
We found it but just by luck. Look for 3 or 4 large trees growing out of the same base part way down to the creek.

MerryMary and I are on a two-week vacation to Colorado to enjoy the fall colors -- taking photos, camping, hoteling, hiking, and 4-wheeling. Today we drove from Aspen, Colorado, to Gunnison. We stopped here to find this cache. Figured with a T1 rating I could just roll my wheels right to GZ, but ended up having to maneuver down a dirt/rock/bush slope to grab this one. Still, an easy find. SLTNLN -- thanks for the fun, SunnyJack and ChasingJack...
