Sleeping Beauty's Prince Charming Multi-Cache

This cache has been archived.

Printess Caroline: Well, she had a good and fun run on Sleeping Beauty Mountain. We didn't find the second stage, but we picked up all of the other pieces. She retires still beautiful and full of good trades and tales but missing her locking ability.

I was really proud of this one! Thanks for all of your nice logs and recognitions over the 13+ years.

Caroline and Chris

Geocache Description:


Once upon a time, there was a printess who hid a beautiful cache on a mountain that bore the name of a fairytale. The printess bid all the good geocachers of the land to come in search of the beauty on the hill and promised them great adventure and a cache of unparalleled loveliness. She told them that to find the beautiful cache they must first find the prince hidden in the wood and bring him to a secret place. There, they would discover his charm. “It is with his charm,” she said, “that you shall break the spell and cause the closed lid to open, thereby revealing the treasure that you seek. Go with the knowledge of the tale and the strength of a good signal, and you shall return victorious!” When the good geocachers did as the printess told them, they were indeed victorious and well rewarded for their efforts. And, of course, they cached happily ever after!


A note of warning from the Printess: The first and second hides are within 50 feet of the trail. Do not let the many switchbacks fool you into leaving the trail too early! To find the final, however, you will need to go deeper into the forest.

While you are there, search for Richard E.'s Sleeping Beauty Cache, too! Then, continue on to do a loop hike that includes Bumps Pond where you may look for Roadragetrx's A Little Light at Bumps.
