Geocache Description:

A Cache with a View

What business does an Iowan have placing a cache in Estes Park, CO? Well, my name is "Summitt Dweller". 8^)

Actually, reason for this cache is that I just loaded my sister-in-law's GPS with coordinates for a 19-mile RMNP hike over the continental divide. I figured she should get more use from the GPS than just that one walk in the woods.

This cache is placed with permission of the property owner and it's very close to US 36. My brother Ron and his wife Lucy manage the property here and live on-site so they'll maintain the cache for me. If you see an "old man" out prepping the pool around 9 AM or 9 PM give a holler and say hello...that's probably Ron.

There's room to pull off the south side of the highway here within a few feet of the cache. Please just be careful doing so and don't park for long or enter the property driveway unless you have a reservation or want to make one. Cache is an ammo can (reports are it can be hard to open) suitable for trading items and travel bugs. Please cover it well when you are done.

Note that this cache may be wheelchair accessible but perhaps not. Consequently, I have bumped the terrain rating up to 1.5 so as not to mislead anyone.
