Geocache Description:

This is where she said YES!

I knew she was expecting a ring, so I had to be sneaky. A romantic dinner somewhere would have been a dead giveaway, so I went with something that we both really enjoyed doing together - caching!Earlier in the morning she was out with some friends, so I found this spot and planted the cache with an empty ring box inside it (I kept the ring in my pocket).Later that day we went caching, and stopped at "Not Two Blue" and "Mary Had a Little Cache" on the way to be sure she wasn't expecting anything.We began the climb, and I was sure she was going to think something was up because I gave the GPS unit to her (a first). After we located it, she opened the cache and saw the ring box. She opened it up and it was, of course, empty. I will remember what she said next forever: "This has got to be the stupidest cache ever. Who would put an empty ring box in a cache by itself?" She turned around, and I was down on one knee with the ring.The surprise was definitely worth it! Geocaching allowed me to get the drop on a very bright and observant woman. Being big fans of the outdoors, we'll be married later this year at Mt. Charleston.

Additional Hints (Decrypt)

[This cache is pretty straightforward, just be careful of loose rock as you near the destination.]
