GT - Pink Houses Traditional Cache

This location reminded me of that John Cougar classic. Or was he going by Mellencamp by then? Actually, I believe this was about the time he was making the transition.
This cache is a 1L camo'd water bottle tucked in a small cave about 2m off the highway side of the trail, about 1m above the rail grade.
The Galena Trail is a segment of the old CPR bed stretching from Three Forks to New Denver. However, the trail extends north toward Nakusp on the old Naskusp & Slocan Railway bed. This section of the trail follows Slocan lake, with beautiful views and small driftwood beaches. It's perfect for walking and cycling, but motorized vehicles are allowed on the trail as well.
When LXGDS and I went camping at Wragge Beach this summer, we were prepared and took some time to lure you cachers to this excellent section of abandoned rail bed with a slough of caches.
As with so many of mine, these caches are "log only" and of course... BYOP!
