Geocache Description:

Near NORAD and Cheyenne Mountain

This cache is named heavy metal because of its trading items. PLEASE only put in metal items or items relating to it. The initial items were a bunch of spare change, a magnet, some coins from other areas that aren't used as currency, and some other metal items. Cache is in a silver container with blue on the side. THe cache is in a nice area around a creek. I upgraded the terrain to a 3.5 because of the poison ivy near the cache. BEFORE YOU GO TO THE CACHE PLEASE DO RESEARCH ON POISON IVY TO IDENTIFY IT. IT IS VERY ABUNDANT IN THIS AREA ESPECIALLY NEAR THE CREEK NEAR THE CACHE. THERE IS A GROVE NEAR THE CREEK ABOUT 20' FROM THE CACHE. I JUST RECENTLY GOT POISON IVY AND IT IS NOT FUN. I WOULD HIGHLY SUGGEST WEARING PANTS AND/OR LONG SLEEVES AND WASH OFF AFTER BEING IN THE AREA. The poison ivy is more towards the creek but not near the cache. I will update soon with photos from the cache site. Requires one creek jump.
