John Timothy Stone's incredible view of Estes park. Short trip through the YMCA of the Rocky's road maze, then a heavenly view awaits near an outdoor sanctuary.
This cache requires a drive through the YMCA of the Rockies. If you are using a smart phone to find this cache you will loose service as you are driving through the actual YMCA property, don't worry though, you will pick it up again as you get toward the top of the mountain where the pavement turns to dirt! Just follow the signs toward Mountainside Lodge, a historic building up the mountain from the main Y-camp. Any vehicle can make the drive, and the cache is a quick walk from the road.


*~*~*~*~*~*~EDIT*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

THIS CACHE IS NOW PUBLIC AND PART OF THE WORLD-WIDE GEOTOUR SERIES!!!!

Conducted maintenance on this cache on June 10th, 2014. Stopped b yto check on the cache after last log. The construction mentioned was a bit of maintenance the site was doing. It is complete now and the site is as beautiful as ever! Cache is in great shape. I dropped off a brand new swag bag full of awesome stuff for both kids and adults! There were no TBs in the cache but Team Blue Rubicon's Bubbaraye dropped off his favorite TB "moose on the loose" to start a brand new journey! He hopes whoever grabs it and starts it's new journey takes lots of photos of it's adventures! I can't tell you all how much I've. Enjoyed reading your logs and the stories you have all shared! Looking forward to many more in the future! Happy caching, my friends!


CONGRATS TO Reform676 FOR FTF!


Still a lot of great swag left to claim! Will be replenishing swag once a month as well! Thanks for the support on my first hide!
