While out searching for both Earthcache locations and Trailmarkers for the International Earthcache Day Virtual 5k run, we have run accross several neat hide locations and/or viewpoints to the valleys below.  This one was placed as a trailmarker for one of several 5k trails and is on the edge of a snowmobile "playground"!  Enjoy the hike, scenery, and find!


A 15-20 minute hike along a poorly marked snowmobile trail.  Rocky in places with a moderate inclines. Watch for and follow the orange snowmobile poles and Diamond waymarkers in the trees around Hole-y-Rock waypoint until the trail opens up into the "Bowl" playground. Can you beleive they run snowmobiles over all the rocks and shrubbery in the "bowl" through which you have just walked?  With 10' of snow, it is totally level up here!
