Recently changed the Tupperware container to a more traditional ammo can since this cache has been here for 15 years, hoping it will be here another 15! Cleaned it out of crummy stuff and left some nice goodies for kids and adults! Enjoy! BTW This cache used to be fairly close to a trail that is now closed. You will have to go a ways off trail to find it.
This is a great area for hiking in the foothills northwest of Golden. There is a nice variety of trails to choose from, and the views of Denver and the plains are beautiful! Be sure to take a walk along the Longhorn trail while you're out this way. The cache has the Far & Away Long Distance Cache that originated from Georgia. I've taken the little plane on some flybys here in Colorado, and will send more pictures to the Adventurers soon. I hope whoever picks the plane up will take it to some interesting place(s) and will share some photos. The cache also contains a baby seal bean toy, Hot Wheels Lamborghini, and a few other little trinkets. Please hide the cache well... It should not be seen without close inspection!

The first find of the day for my friend Milly and I. We approached off trail and didn't realize the area was closed. TFTC!

Found 15 caches in this park with Bhob while targeting the Trailmix cache, and the oldie. We parked at the east lot, and clocked just over 8 miles.

I tackled this from the east parking, and didn't see any closures from my approach. After finding the cache I went further west on the trail, and saw the closed sign for Rawhide.

Hazardous area, so my guess is fallen tree/s or black bears more active in this area. Either way, should be temporary.

Cache in great shape. Thanks for upgrading to ammo can, and for keeping this active for so long!

Would be cool owning such an oldie. Gets a fave!

Thanks Eye Tech! Logged Rawhide Trail from a seventh galaxy using c:geo!

Amazing how long this cache has been in the park. We have never been to this Jeffco Open Space before, and I studied the maps ahead of time to decide which areas to hike. It seems that the trails have been relocated somewhat probably since this cache was placed and we had a confusing time with some of the cache placement in relation to the maps. Removed a lighter from the container. Thanks for the hide!
