The Mountains Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Wizard of Ooze: As the cache owner has not indicated that they have visited the cache location to replace it if missing, perform needed maintenance, or verify that it is still there within the requested time period, I am regretfully archiving the cache to clear it from the active cache database and open the area to new caching opportunities.

Geocache Description:


This cache location offers a panoramic view of the hills and mountains surrounding Kelowna.

Hidden at the top of Tower Ranch Mountain Park, the cache offers views of Black Knight Mountain, Mine Hill, Layer Cake Mountain, The South Slopes, Mount Boucherie, Knox Mountain, Dilworth Mountain, Mount Baldy, and others.

Tower Ranch Mountain Park, or "Tower Ranch Hillside Park" according to Google Maps, is classified by the city of Kelowna as an undeveloped natural area. From what I can tell this means there's no parking lot and no bulldozed or otherwise man-made trails. This means you'll either have to follow animal trails that criss-cross the hillside or make a straight line "bush-whacking" approach to get to the caches I've placed in this area. Recommended parking is near the electrical substation at the end of Tower Ranch Drive. (Drive, not Boulevard)

When placed this cache contained a logbook, two pencils, a pencil sharpener, and a geocoin.
