This cache is placed just off Hermit Placer Trail above Breckenridge’s Carter Park. Parking for the park is located near East Adams and South High Streets. Start from Carter Park and take the Sunbeam Trail until you meet Jack’s Cruel Joke Trail. Follow this trail up the hill to Hermit Placer Trail which will take you near the cache site.
There is a path starting at N 39 28.502 W 106 02.207 that runs perpendicular off the main trail that will take you near cache site that might make access a little easier.
The trail from the park up to near the cache site is relatively easy, but the last few feet up to the cache location is a bit of a scramble.
The cache container is a one foot long piece of black PVC pipe. It is hidden in a rock field under a pile of rocks. The area is wooded so the GPS coordinates might not be completely accurate, so look around.
To exit the cache site, continue along Hermit Placer Trail for a few hundred feet until you reach a clearing. This area overlooks Carter Park and has a great view of Breckenridge. Continue past the clearing and take the Carter Park Trail back down to the park.
