Geocache Description:

While this cache is certainly no Death Wish, and really shouldn't even be mentioned in the same breath, it will involve a little scaling.

I was originally going to hide this cache in one of the nooks or crannies that are a plenty here, but after watching a field mouse scurry beneath one of the many barriers I decided it would not be wise to stick my hand in one of the many holes blindly. If I wouldn't do it I shouldn't expect others to.

Depending on how the wind has blown, and how the previous hider left the cache dangling it may very well be visible from the ground. I would think that generally you'll be able to see the silver bison tube dangling above everything. The location will be quite obvious when you arrive.


The other part of this challenge may be avoiding the eyes of passing cars. I had no problem while hiding it. But I did it at night when I couldn't be seen as easily. (I'm like a Ninja!!) I recommend approaching from the "back" side away from traffic.


I kindly ask that you do not try to remove the whole container, but just screw off the bottom to retrieve the log


Just a warning....I learned while climbing that the metal frame at the top, that the cache is hung from is not completely bolted down. It will not come off the structure, but it will spin. I have a few scrapes to prove it. Please be safe out there

Please be sure to use the ample pull off area so the few cars that use this road won't be hindered during your search.
