In town for an Elk hunt with my father. Today I was walking the Wilson Creek Trail that I had all to myself. Was getting to the top of the hill when I looked at my GPSr and saw that there was a cache nearby. Continued on until I made it to the cache and made the find. Cache in great shape and hidden well. Not too many visitors over the years. Great cache and a fun time getting to it. Thanks for the cache and adding to the fun of the day. Gets a Favorite Point!! Thanks again.

It's been awhile since this one has been found. Does the snow EVER melt up there. Glad I Had a 4-Wheel drive truck to get to the gate.Wasn't a bad hike except for the wind.This one deserves a favorite point. Really enjoyed the hike. Glad the cache wasn't on TOP of the hill. Great hide. Cache is well hidden and in great shape.SL TFTC

Took some first time cachers out today to find this one. I was having trouble getting a good reading on my GPS so it took quite awhile to narrow in on where this one was located. One of the first timers finally spotted it. Enjoyed the little hike to get to this one.

Once upon a time there was a boy and a girl that dreamed of a treasure. Long ago they attempted to find it, but their quest was thwarted due to a slithering monster that forbid them to pass. Now, years later, the two returned with reinforcements and a dedication to find that which eluded them so long ago. Setting out with those that call themselves "The Raiders", the boy and the girl were able to conquer that which once conquered them. Although the two parted company with those that went further up the trail, they found themselves blessed with the sight of about 30 magical creatures, often referred to as Turkeys, as they rode their contraption back to the highway of the nine.

Spent the day hiking with CCHS Raiders and Sevenfooter1. We had a great time going up to this one. It was a warm, sunny day for late November. Took Rachel with me.

CCHS Raiders hiked up to this one with Sevenfooter1, Elkheart, and Rachel. It was a warm, perfect day for a hike. Lots of snow in the shade. Found the cache, and then hiked about a half mile higher on the mountain. We stopped for lunch, practiced some survival skills, and then hiked out. Lots of fun! Took the alien, left a helicopter and a ball and string.

Marma and I parked down by Twiddly Diddly Squat and took the trail on up in a light sprinkling rain by the time we got there it was more like a down pour and got soaked down to the bone
What a neat trail into the back country
Thanks for taking us there Smile[:x]
