Geocache Description:

Where in the world is Coloreido?

Chicago, Paris, or Toledo?

Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high

He flew to a land that I've heard of in a lullaby.

Somewhere in Alaska, skies are blue

And the caches that you dare to dream,

will make it thru review.


Spencer Glacier is one of Alaska's Hidden Treasures. Accessible only by Alaska Railroad's Glacier Discovery train, snowmobile, and a long strenuous hike over mountain passes this area is definitely less visited especially if one chooses to overnight. There are concessionaire run group campgrounds just over a mile from the Whistle Stop and several free individual US Forest Service campsites to be found along the Lakeside Trail.

The train runs mid May until mid September depending on snow conditions. Snowmobiles may be used to access the Spencer Glacier area in winter, depending on snow conditions.

This cache is located near the lakeshore trail leading to the Glacier Overlook.

The $ attribute is for the cost of the train ride to and from the Spencer Glacier Whistle Stop. The railroad charges an additional fee for bicycles.

The <10KM attribute is based on taking the train to the Spencer Glacier Whistle Stop.
