Geocache Description:

5/27/21 Update: This cache has been repaired today! Enjoy!

"We liked this spot because it's by a little creek that you can play in. In the winter time, you can see the water has crystals in it with the water running underneath. You can hear birds, even woodpeckers and that's how you know you're in the right area. That's the reason for the name 'Singing Birds'. "- (from our young explorer who chose the spot)

Beautiful little geologic area between the cement trail and Mesa Middle School. If it's a warm day, you can smell the tree the geocache is hidden beneath. Putting your nose close to the bark will reveal a cinnamon and vanilla smell. The sweet smell is our favorite thing about Ponderosa Pines! Ponderosas are the tree we have the most of in our Castle Rock parks and trails system.

Please re-hide this cache well. There has been a lot of vandalism in the area.

One word of caution, on your way to this location, there are some areas with old barbed wire laying around. Please watch out.
