Geocache Description:

In Pike National Forest just off the Ringtail Trail. This trail is accessible by all non-motorized users either from the Indian Creek TH* ($6 parking fee) off Hwy. 67, the **Sharptail Ridge TH on Roxborough Rd. (horses & hikers only) or from Roxborough SP (hikers only, $7 entrance fee). For many cachers this is the backcountry but it is a favorite front country trail for equestrians.

A regular ammo can with a theme of horses (what else!). If you don't have something to trade but know a little girl that really likes horses, go ahead and take what you think she would like.
Stop by "Goldilock's Cabin" just east of the cache in the Douglas County open space.

*NOTE It is 4 miles one way on the Indian Creek trail.
**Hikers & horseback riders (no dogs or bikes) are able to get there from the Sharptail TH (8 miles one way) when it isn't closed for hunting in the fall. Check the Douglas Co. Open Space website for closure dates before heading out.
The only reason for the 3 star terrain rating is the distance to the cache. The trail is well built & easy to follow. The views on the way up from either direction are fantastic!
