When I first arrived in Colorado, I was looking for a good place to hide a cache.
Imagine my amusement when I discovered a mountain top of my own. 
I knew I had to put a cache there. Two years later, I finally completed that quest!

... and after another year, I've gone back and loaded the area with each size.

This one is the small-sized.

Except for the Regular and Large container's, which are ammo cans, you're looking for a theme to the other three.

It's a small, but you're not looking for any typically-shaped container.

Please replace the cover so it's semi-protected from critters, weather and the chance-muggle.

Please be careful. There are many loose rocks that otherwise appear to be very stable.





SKuLL Rock

SKuLL Rock is a 7,126 ft mountain peak near Deckers, Colorado.

It's just West of South Platte River at the intersection of Hwy67 and Hwy126.

Congrats to wildkatco for the FTF!!

Today was our day to conquer Skull Rock and find all six of the SkuLL Rock caches!!
Unfortunately we only found five of the six. (Guess which one eluded us--ha!) This small cache was well-hidden but made for a fairly quick find. SL Replaced as found. Thanks for this fun series!

I was so bummed when I couldn't make the hike with other cachers a month ago but I decided today would be my chance to make my assault on this mountain by myself. I did bring my geo dog Hitch & it was a challenge even for him. I started with this one because I wanted to get up high as early as possible because even before noon the dark clouds were building. This one wasn't too hard to find. A good one to start with.

This was a piece of cake after the last one and it was mostly downhill from here. TFTC

Beautiful day with WingsAndTales and COpackrat. Quite steep and lots of maneuvering around boulders in places to complete this fun series. Thanks for placing these for us!
