From C-470, go west about 1.6 miles on Highway 285. Take the Colorado Highway 8 exit north to Jefferson 48 (Willow Springs Road), about 0.25 miles. Go south 0.3 miles on Willow Springs Road until you pass under Highway 285. Park on either side of the road at N39 37.524 and W105 11.331, making sure not to block the Colorado Department of Highways access road on the west side.

The cache is south of Highway 285, but well hidden from casual hikers. For your safety and the security of the cache, do not park along Highway 285 and do not cross the east-west fence south of the cache to private land.

If you have read the logs from those cachers that have completed this cache, they may tell you that it is much easier to park along Highway 285. I highly recommend that you park in the designated spot. I'd much rather have to step over some obstacles and walk a short distance, than have to take the chance that I'm going to get hit by a crazy driver.

The cache is in a JUG but you will not have to RACK your brain to figure out why I named it, if you look southwest!

There are thorns and other prickly plants, so wear long pants and boots. During the winter, it may be kind of NIPPY. So dress warmly. Also there are tons of trash in this area, so if you want to help out Mother Nature, do your part and carry some trash out with you. After all, this is her Wardrobe Malfunction, and she does want us to enjoy it.

Last one of the day. I am out from Aurora, Colorado. I am loving the geocaching out here in the Mountains of Colorado. I just road the train in Chama, NM. I am heading back home. Highway 160 was closed due to the forest fire. at least 285 is reopened. I have to take this back way home. On the Bright side I get to hit some more geocaches. Thank you for the hide. gets a favorite. TNLN.

What a strange place to hide a cache but it's an oldie so I figured I'd better find it but be aware this is definitely NOT a 1 terrain.

Found it! Not a bad walk, just make sure ya wear long pants and are ready for stickers! We ended up parking under the bridge and walking out to the quick find.

This makes find 18 of our honeymoon spree!

Thanks!

Name is fitting. Terrain is more difficult than a 1.0 suggests, in my opinion, but still a fun cache. TFTC SL
