Geocache Description:


Valley-View-I-01


BYOP

This cache is hidden in a location with a pretty good view of the Arkansas Valley as you come down the county road from Sugar City. Imagine this valley full of water as it used to be long long ago. Although a fraction of its original size, the Arkansas River is the lifeline of this valley. It flows from the Rocky Mountains to the West through Canon City, Pueblo and all the way across the midwest into the Mississippi river. Without this river the valley would look much like the prairie to the north of the cache location, barren, arid grassland. Take a moment to imagine yourself in the 1800's coming over the prairie hill and seeing this fertile lush valley after a long journey in a covered wagon across the hot dry plains.

Cache is roughly the size of a pill bottle, and is not far from the road. Be stealthy while in the area so as to not attract attention. Please make sure the container is sealed completely before replacing exactly as you found so no passers by can see it and steal it.

**Warning** Hint is a spoiler!
