Trail Ruts Traditional Geocache

This cache has been archived.

Heartland Cacher: Greetings from Geocaching.com I'm Heartland Cacher, one of the volunteer reviewers for new caches submitted to Geocaching.com.

It has been a while since I first looked at this cache. I can't find any recent responses from the Cache Owner about maintaining this cache which makes it appear the Cache Owner is either unwilling or unable to maintain the cache. Cache maintenance includes listing maintenance including updating any changes to the text, updating coordinates, removing needs maintenance attributes and enabling the listing. The cache will be archived and removed from the active cache listings. Should the owner decide to maintain the cache in the near future (30 days), just contact me (by email including the GCXXX and Cache Name), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, I'll be happy to unarchive it.

Thanks for your understanding,
Heartland Cacher

Located south of Guernsey, Wyoming, Park at the Trail ruts parking area. Rocky steep terrain (not much), could be quite difficult after rain or snowfall. Watch for snakes and other prairie hazards. (cactus, pines, yucca, etc...)

Be sure to visit Register Cliff located about a 4 mile drive to the east of here. Make sure you stop and think about how many wagons it took to create these ruts!!!
