Geocache Description:

A journey in to The Crags, featuring beautiful scenery, grand views, and a 5 mile round trip hike.

Grab your Geocaching bags!
There’s treasure waiting at the Crags!

This cache consists of just two parts.
Find the small one as a start.
It contains the vital clues
That lead you on to number two.

The first is just an impish box
That likes to hide in a pile of rocks.
About the size of a grown man’s fist,
This box is small! You get the gist.

Once you’ve found the small one first
It gives coordinates and verse
To take you to the second cache
And that one houses all the stash!

One sure way that you won’t fail
Is if you stay upon the trail.
This 5-mile hike’s a favorite route
And it can be a good work out.

But kids and dogs can do well too
If they commit to hike with you.
No need to get close to the edge
There's nothing hidden on a ledge.

The Crags are just south of Divide
Take 67 for a ride.
Turn east at the sign “Crags C.G.” if you’re able,
It's by a fence and a big horse stable.
(N 38 52.798 W 105 09.414)

You’re on dirt road but the road’s alright
At the Mennonite camp you’ll turn to the right
Another mile and a half you’ll see the Crags camp ground
Turn left through that and then parking can be found.
(Park around N 38 52.278 W 105 07.203 at the Crags trailhead, after driving through the campground, no fee).

Please enjoy the hunt my friends,
And now Team Crikey’s poem ends.
