Cache commemorates the 1st Guys Retreat held in Buena Vista
The original description of the cache:
"Special Cache commemorating the 1st Guys Retreat held 9/27-28 at the soon to be defunct Cactus Ranch in Buena Vista, Colorado. Next year we will find another BV location for the retreat since the Cactus Ranch itself will be no more. The remains of the Cactus Ranch (a tobacco tin) are contained in the sandwich size tupperware container of the cache.

Please be careful retrieving and respect the land you are on. it is about 30 feet above the road. Please see the photo, I am waving above the tree - the cache is near my feet."

The approach from the North is probably a 4.5. From the South it would be about a 3-. Anything beyond the location of the cache itself would require technical climbing gear - but up to this point it is pretty straight forward.

The container has been replaced a couple of times so it isn't a tupperware container anymore. However, it is about that size and well hidden.

Still there and in good shape! Lemonheadmafia and came to Buena Vista to explore and fish this weekend. Unfortunately, cottonwood pass is closed for the summer. I was excited to find this one because it marks 15x fizzy for me! Sl, thanks!
