Since I placed this cache, the the BLM has closed the road that allowed you to get closer to the cache. Park in a DESIGNATED parking area. You then have to walk to N39 10.280 W109 00.760 where you can easily cross the fence. From here, the best route is to go northeast around the hill which provides a nice stroll to the ridge.
The correct route to this cache is an easy stroll except for the climb which is an easy grade. This cache provides a beautiful view of Ruby Canyon and the surrounding hills. The hike to the cache also provides very nice views on both sides of the ridge. There is a 100 yard section of the ridge that is narrow (probably about 10 feet at the narrowest) with cliffs on both sides but can be easily walked across if you are not terrified of heights. BE CAREFUL if you bring kids. The route I took is a 4 mile round trip hike with a 470 foot elevation change. No scrambling is required if you take the right route. The cache is an ammo can that originally contained Happy Meal toys.
Congratulations to earthcurrent for the FTF
