The Rosa is a Rosa,
And was always a Rosa.
But now the theory goes-a
That the apple's a Rosa,
And the pear is, and so's a
The plum, I suppose-a.
The dear only knows-a
What will next prove a Rosa.
You, of course, are a Rosa
But were always a Rosa.

Left the North Cheyenne Canyon parking lot at sunrise this morning with 2 goals: summit Mt. Rosa before the weather rolled in and pick up a few specific higher-altitude caches (including this one) for a challenge I've been working on for a while. Skipped a bunch of caches along the way due to previously posted DNFs, which freed up quite a bit of time to explore elsewhere - after summitting, I dropped south to Pike's Cave and then down to FR 381 (recon'd it back to where the trail crosses it - it's in great shape!), St. Mary's Falls, and even finally got to Four Paws. What a GREAT hike! I had been putting this one off due to trail reports talking about bullets whizzing overhead(!!) but those must have been from the Frosty's Park approach - today's hike was quiet and felt totally safe. My fitbit clocked me in at 20.15 miles by the time the rain encouraged me to go back to the car. Thanks for placing this cache!

#2 outta three in a row by the trio of Springs 'legends' (that's me being goofy) that I've been following through this sport around here for years!
