Geocache Description:



At 14,134 feet, South Elbert doesn't meet the criteria for being a rated "Mountain", because its saddle with MT Elbert is too high. (Another forgotten fourteener similar to MT Cameron.) Climb it from the Black Cloud Trailhead and make your own opinion of that! You can also get here safely from the saddle with Bull Hill or MT Elbert. There was an ammo can sitting in the open holding the summit register; that is not the cache... The cache is a small log-only plastic container, hidden under some rocks, (to keep the marmots from knawing on it.) Included in the posted images are spoilers to the cache hide. Please cover it again with a couple small rocks. Enjoy!
