Warning

Please note: To use the services of geocaching.com, you must agree to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

The cache container is very close to, but not at, the posted coords. Use the posted coords as a reference point to find the container.
Tales of a large, hairy, manlike creature (known as Bigfoot in the USA and Sasquatch in Canada) living in remote areas of the North American continent, including the Pikes Peak Region, have been reported for many years.

Eyewitnesses describe the creature as being 6 to 8 feet tall, walking upright on two legs, weighing 500-800 pounds and being covered with hair.

Although a few individual scientists are studying this phenomenon, the possible existence of this creature has largely been ignored by mainstream science. Most of the serious investigators are laymen, who check sighting reports and gather data, hoping to prove that Bigfoot is real.

Several thousand people have claimed encounters with Bigfoot; huge unexplained footprints have been found in the forests. But here IS Bigfoot, right at the posted coords!

UPDATE 6-26-09 Change to offset: At the big toe of Bigfoot, go about 10' NE (20 degrees magnetic) to find the container, a camoed lock-lock. (This container and log were used previously in a Terracache, so that's why the old scratchings in the log. I just hate to discard anything.)

The Pikes Peak Toll Road is open year-round, weather permitting.
Hours of Operation: October 1 to the Friday prior to Memorial Day weekend - 9 a.m. - 3 p.m. (Visitors must be off the mountain by 5:00 p.m.)
Friday Prior to Memorial Day Weekend through Labor Day - 7 a.m. - 7 p.m.
After Labor Day through the last day of September - 7 a.m. - 5 p.m.
(*Hours subject to change without notice.)

I would call that "a Petrified Bigfoot". Maybe you could make some money on that one! Cache in good shape. Took the toy truck. Left a cassette tape and a mini eraser. Thanks, I loved it.
