Spent a wonderful day out in this area finishing up these series and having a wonderful time doing so. The weather was great for a day of driving and hoping out ever so often. The company was great as RPieperCo came out here with me. We found lots of caches and puzzles today to make a nice full day full of caching and fun times. It's amazing how far out here it is!

- Did you hear about the guy whose whole left side was cut off? He's all right now.

Wow, this hasn’t been found for almost a year! Fun puzzle, but needed help as usual. We were able to drive almost right up to the cache which is still there and in good condition. TFTC.

TFTC I came down from Woodland Park for the CITO in Falcon the cloudy morning. I arrived a bit early so I could try to find some solved puzzles and to fix a DNF that has eluded me a few times.

This was a real head banger. And after finding what I thought was the right solution, I searched high and low, left and right, inside and out, and had no joy for 45 minutes. Finally PAF and found out I had put in the wrong coords. Back to GZ again and things worked out much better.
Thanks for all the aggravation and fun.

Came out this way after my wife came home from work. The solution was tough and i had to get help from a previous finder. With the information needed I headed out in some chilly but sunny weather. I had a pretty good hint to it's location so the snow wasn't too big of a deal. Signed the log and replaced as found. All is well so far! Thanks for placing this one for us all to enjoy!

I've been working on this puzzle off and on for over three years. I've had multiple copies of printouts of the geocoin with the ring cut off so I could try different stuff. These printouts have lived under my desk calendar at work, at the house, and in my bag that I carry back and forth and on trips. A few months ago, I started asking previous finders how they solved it. I never got very specific directions until about a week ago. With that, I was finally able to solve the puzzle for the North coordinates, but I had to be given the West coordinates because I still couldn't figure out how to solve those. So, suffice it to say... tough puzzle. Tonight after sunset, we still needed our daily cache, so I figured we needed to go find this one since it was our closest unfound cache to the house. I hopped 2 fences and crossed some fields to get to GZ; not sure if that was the right way to get there, but it worked.

The listed geocoin is not inside (nor would it fit the current container); recent logs show that it (or a proxy) is actually in the Eagle Rock cache.

This is day 1171 of our current daily caching streak. Thanks again for helping us to extend it by another day.

TFTC!

Solved the first half of this with a little nudge. Could never get the second half. Used logic and geosense to find the correct longitude. Glad to finally have this off the list.

Out today on my final cache for a goal of 555 consecutive day streak for a challenge cache around the way... I think I'll go for 2 years and give it a rest on the streak.

This wasn't as easy as I figured. Finally had to get a bit of help for it. Once I figured what was needed to crack the code, it was done. I got GZ and noticed I wasn't supposed to go any further, but my GPSr was telling me to move ahead. Thankfully, I didn't actually have to. Some kind of bug had made a place in the center of the log, but it appears to be gone now. TFTC!

The first part was relatively easy once we got the clues. The second part of the puzzle took a bit longer, we contacted the Co a few times and still were unable to solve it. We then contacted a friend who was also trying to solve the puzzle, together we solved it. T4T$
