Geocache Description:



He's Going The Distance


Rocky

***Note for next cache hunter!***

I would appreciate it if the next hunter would bring a replacement container and log up with you. I have moved out of state. Thanks! (03/22)

A series of caches in tribute to The Italian Stallion himself.

A slightly larger than normal match container placed along of Trail 716 of Mt Herman (Trail Head parking about 5 miles up Mt Herman Road). Requires a long hike along beautiful trails and some steep climbs. This trail meets up with many along the way and there are many ways to access this location. There are more than 20 other caches along the way so plan for at least a 4-5 hour hike, Great for families of all ages and there are not ant TOO difficult paths to take. The Difficulty rating in the winter months will be much higher due to ice and snow, so be careful. Each Cache in this series will get slightly more difficult in terrain as we head up the mountain.

To best access this cache, follow the trail up to Raspberry mountain and continue on down the trail until you reach a fork marked by pink ribbon on a young aspen tree. The junction to access the ridge line is at N 39° 05.696 W 104° 55.618

Going straight up the trail to the summit of Mt Herman will dead end on the northern most cliff At Busters Cache (GC13B44) [I was a little more adventurous and went straight down into the valley] so remember to head west to Hey Ferb! I know what we're gonna do today! (GC287B7)to set you in the right direction.
