Geocache Description:

Waterton Canyon is finally open again after being closed for more than a year. So, I returned to Waterton and hid several caches including this one.

Micro container at an interesting historical location.

Get your bike out and head up into Waterton Canyon to a location known to the railroad that used to be here as Intake. The railroad had a short siding here.

This is also where there is a water diversion that was built long ago. There is a benchmark nearby that you can also log. If you find the benchmark, look over the edge into the water below and spot the old piece of railroad rail that has probably been there since the early 1940's when the railroad was removed from Waterton.

As always in Waterton Canyon, watch for rattlesnakes, bighorn sheep and mule deer. Also, watch out for spiders in the area.
