Located off Rampart Range Rd., In Pike National Forest, approx. halfway between Woodland Park and Colorado Springs. This road offers some of the most spectacular views in the Pikes Peak area. The hike to the cache is only 75-100 ft., up a small hill. Children should have no problem with the climb.
If you are not familiar with this road, it is posted as "Not maintained for low clearance vehicles". Most SUVs and higher vehicles should have no problem most of the time.
If you drive down from the top, the road is in better shape. It's around 25 miles either driving from Woodland Park, and back, or driving on down to the Springs. The bottom half is a little rockier, but you do end up right at the Garden of the Gods Park. Either way you travel, you will be treated to some of the most awesome views in the area.
DISCLAIMER: Please, use your best judgement and discretion in determining if your vehicle is appropriate for this road.
The cache is located a couple hundred feet off of the road, next to a group of campsites, on a forest road. This road should be no problem for any vehicle fit to be on the main road. Note: It appears that camping is not allowed on this side of the road, at the present time.
You are looking for a 1 gallon clear plastic jug, with a white lid.
This is Cheyennes first cache, so she got to choose the theme. She happens to like animals(what little girl doesn't?), so she decided she wants to start a Zoo. We have started with some stuffed animals, some plastic animals(cool tiger!), a rubber duck, a Travel Bug, and some other animal related items. Also, something cool for the first to find. Please keep to the theme, and trade only animal related items. Please hide the cache exactly as you found it, and report any problems you observe.
