Geocache Description:

Seventh and final in a series with something for everyone, from easy access to hiking trails to bushwhacking, to a good climb... all in the beautiful Elkhorn Creek hiking area.  This one is the "good climb" part.

 


This is a nice sized cache near the top of a peak with a superb view: http://360.io/3XA6sD

The only approachable direction to the top of this rock is from the east, unless you're up for a daunting scrambe over a huge boulder field (the western approach). 

At the location of the cache, you'll need to do a very short chimney to get down into a fissure.  Leave your acrophobia and claustrophobia at home!

You're looking for a large, rock-colored tube.  You can see it from above but you'll have to climb down.
