From the web page for Round Mountain:
This temporary opening enables visitors to hike the trail for a few weeks - until the trail is closed again for another project from spring to summer. Closure dates coming soon. The trail head will be subject to additional closure pending the start of a pipeline reclamation project to remove the former hydropower plant supply line. Thank you.
So double check to see if the trail is open before you try for this cache or contact me and I will let you know the current status of the trail.

Greetings I'm Heartland Cacher, one of the volunteer reviewers for caches submitted to Geocaching.com.
We are doing a check of caches that have been disabled for an extended period. Please maintain this cache and post an appropriate note to the cache page.
As stated in the cache listing guidelines https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines#listingmaintenance Disable a cache page when the cache is not available or you need time to fix reported problems. A cache page can stay disabled for a reasonable amount of time - generally up to four weeks.
PLEASE NOTE:
Today's notice is a friendly reminder only. Do not reply to me directly. Rather, please go to "Log geocache" (upper right hand of the cache page) and choose "WRITE A NOTE" from the drop down menu. Please do not use the "OWNER MAINTENANCE" log until you do the maintenance and the cache is ready to be found again with a status update and any intention to revive the cache. Several reviewers participate in cache maintenance tasks so a log posted in this manner is the best way to get your message seen. Without a log posted you risk having the cache archived.
If you have disabled this cache for the winter or a season, please consider this a reminder to post a notice for when you expect the area to re-open. Re-activate the cache if the area is actually open again.
After you have checked on it and it's ready for seeking again, great! You can re-enable the cache page http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 by clicking the link under the cache name or by checking the box that says the cache is active. If, however, you discover that the cache is missing and/or you decide not to replace it, then please remove any remaining pieces of it and archive it. This will open up the area for other geocachers to hide their own geocaches. You may also need to digitally relocate any trackable items still listed here. If a "Needs Maintenance" log was posted, you will also need to log an "Owner Maintenance" log to clear the "Needs Maintenance" icon from the geocache page. http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404
I want to thank you for the time that you have taken to contribute to geocaching in the past and I am looking forward to seeing your cache up and running in the future. If the cache is not maintained or the status is not updated, it will be archived. Thank you for understanding.
If this sounds like an automated email template, that's because it is. I apologize for that but the volume of messages we get is such that templates like this make the process much more efficient. Thanks for your understanding.
I look forward to hearing from you. Do not reply to this email. It is sent by a no-reply mailbot so I won't get it. To respond, please do NOT send me an e-mail or a message center conversation as they lack needed functionality for reviewing. Leave a new "Reviewer Note" log here on your cache page. If you're not familiar with this process, see the instructions https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=97&pgid=74. I have your cache on my watchlist, and I will receive a notification when you write your note.
"If a geocache is archived by a reviewer or staff for lack of maintenance *it will not be unarchived."*
Additionally, please note that if I've not heard from you in 4 weeks, I may be forced to archive this cache. Don't let your cache get archived for non-communication
Heartland Cacher
Your friendly Geocaching.com Reviewer

The Round Mountain trail head will be CLOSED January 4 - February 16, 2019.
The Round Mountain trail head closure is due to a forest mitigation project under the direction of the Big Thompson River Coalition to help reduce fuel sources in the event of a wildfire. The trail head will be subject to additional closure pending the start of a pipeline reclamation project to remove the former hydropower plant supply line. Thank you.

Thanks for the multi. Found the first stage a long while ago, but never had the energy to go up the nature trail after hitting the summit trail first. Today was a shorter hike, so I had some gas left when I got back to the intersection. I hadn't re-checked the first stage, so I was glad to find that the cache hadn't moved in the last few years. Took the hard way across a deep gully with lots of vegetation, but took the easy way back. Really enjoyed looking through the original log book from 2002. I was curious about the name, so I checked and sure enough, this was Tahosa's 25th hide, not counting events. Headed back to the car after this, tired and happy.

Found stage 1, the micro, with the coordinate info. However, I do not know how to decipher these numbers. So I just continued my hike to the summit and had a wonderful day!

Cache is still there.

Need to check stage one, to see where the clues went too.

I found the container at the first stage today, I think, but no coordinates. I messaged the CO to make sure that I found the right container. I also found a rattlesnake. I had my hand about a foot from this guy when I spotted the flicker of its tongue out of the corner of my eye. I quickly backed up. It never rattled, but it was definitely a rattlesnake.
Wow! rattlesnake!

After helping My Dad Tahosa hide this Beautiful Cache so many years ago I forgot just about all the info on finding this Cache so he took me through the paces and it all came back to me.

Everything was missing. So up the hill we went and voila it was repaired.

Unfortunately the coordinates for the second stage were missing from the cache. I have completed this cache before and was with a group giving it a try. The container was there and closed in the correct spot but it was empty.

Found stage one container with nothing inside. Previous cacher possibly took with them? Will need a replacement. :(

Out caching today trying to get my multi finds up. Just had to trek through a little snow to grab this guy. Thanks for the hide!

I didn't expect to find this one today. I'd intended to just pop up and get the first stage, expecting some sort of map gymnastics that would be easier to figure out at home, but it was pretty straightforward so I hiked on over to get it. The extra walk made my dog happy. Lesson learned: Stay on the trail as long as possible, especially when it's snowy!
Cache is in good shape (no t-shirt though). Nice view. Took the quarter and left a pathtag and a pen, and sharpened the pencils. I did wonder though, why is it called #25?
