This cache is part of my tribute to our men and Women in the Armed Forces. My Father served in World War II and was honored with the Silver Star.

It is important for us to share their stories, for that they will be remembered. Please feel free to share your stories.

This cache is a Altoids can (camouflaged to the correct color) which is available year round.

There service during WWII was very important and this area is very historical and informational in the developement of the Ski Industry.

This is also located on the Continental Divide. Runoff on the east slope goes into the Arkansas River and ultimately to the Gulf of Mexico. To the west, the Colorado River and the Pacific Ocean.
