GPSR read 10,000 down on the road where we stopped, but not at the cache. Hint helped us zero in on it, but it was shear luck we saw it. Walked by it once. It is hanging about 3' off the ground! TFTC.

Didn’t find the cache but did get to see the train. A little more of a home by maybe? On the ground? Lots of bent trees up thete. Phone said 8 feet.

Great hide and by my altimeter, right at 10K'. Love this beautiful drive.

Eagle Eye WileECacher finds again. Grab for both Conejo County and section 89th DeLorme. No train today. Sad to say. But thanks for the hide anyway.

10:39 AM I passedd the train on the way up here. This lights up CO DeLorme 089 for me. Five to go! I think I got lucky here. Tough hide. Last found almost 6 months ago in December. Lots of familiar Albuquerque names on the log. I guess maybe that was when GeoWoodstock was in Denver. It is in Ft Worth next year.

Day 2 of an ambitious trip to finish up the Colorado DeLorme, Great Square (all 4 corners of Colorado) and New Mexico DeLorme challenge requirements. I lack 6 southwestern CO and 2 northwestern NM DeLorme pages. (Yesterday I drove from Dallas to Albuquerque.)

Today is about getting NM 014 grid and CO grids 089, 078, 084 and possibly 074, 064 and 065 to finish out.

With the 4 corners region planned for Thursday, I will visit the southwestern and final corner of CO. (The northwest corner is, by far, the hardest.) I'm also headed to Potter's Pond (August 2000) cache in Utah in Wednesday.

Friday I head back to Albuquerque and Santa Fe see family and friends. I wanted to do a little cache maintenance in the Pecos Wilderness, but that is now off the table with the area closure.

I signed the log. Thanks, shashyaz&foxy, for the cache.
