Coal Creek is a normally quiet little creek that meanders for the most part unnoticed through Boulder County, including through the town of Superior. But in September of 2013 mad raging flood waters caused the creek to overflow. I have placed this microcache in a safe spot off the ground where hopefully it'll remain safe if Coal Creek ever overflows its banks again.

Congrats to CDSH for FTF (and sorry about the cut toe!)

The tenth one, last one of the day with eaglescout5. We started searching for it when I was in kindergarten, and over the last three years, we looked for it and today, we found it! The hide was interesting and I'd say that it is hard. TFTC!!!

Bunnyscout5 and I were on a roll today, so we thought we would give this cache one last try. We've been here a few times over the last three years and we finally grabbed the find today! 10/10, and we closed this chapter in our adventure. TNLNSL TFTC

What an interesting machine, and dangerous looking too. With all those exposed gears, belts, and chains it had to be a hazardous machine to operate. I did find some wasp nests but no cache so I'll have to return and try again. In combination with the Industrial Mine Cache this makes a very interesting local history lesson.
