Geocache Description:

Letterbox Hybrid Cache placed near the entrance of Way Out West Ranch.  Ammo Container large enough for lots of swag and trackables.  Stamp book, stamp, and ink pad inside!  

Please drive cautiosly out of respect for our equine friends!

I found this spot while taking my mom and kid sister out for a sunset horseback ride at Way Out West Ranch.  The roads are a bit bumpy and cachers are cautioned to drive slow and watch for horses!

This area is great at sunset.  Travel a bit further north of the cache site and you will be able to see the Tortolita Mountains, Picacho Peak, and Pinal Air Park from a higher vantage point.  There are lots of mature saguaro cacti and desert vegetation in this area and great photo opportunities.

This is no QPNG and it won't take a master's degree in chemistry to solve this puzzle.  

Escape from the stop and go traffic, jump on the freeway....set your cruise control....and come out and SIGN THIS LOG. CONGRATS TO CARMEL ON FTF!!!!!
