If ya like a tall-tale, come help search for Tangled Ted - “Clumb
Chimney Rock a lot,” he said. This is a multi-cache comprised of
several micro-caches with the last one being a “regular” cache.
Each micro-cache has a part of the story of “Tangled Ted” and
coordinates to the next cache. The first micro is an Altoids tin
that has been painted and marked with TT, the next two micros are
small, red hide-a-key rocks which have some other small red rocks
piled around them. Check the encrypted hint if you would like more
info concerning #3' - it has disappeared the most over the years,
so I put it in what I hope is a very inconspicuous spot! The last
cache has an assortment of Tangled Ted-themed items and a log book.
There are 4 stops total on this hunt. Please take something and
don’t leave anything as I will keep it stocked with themed items.
The parking lot for the trail head is a fee-lot. You need to
have a Red Rock Pass which you can purchase at the Chamber of
Commerce, one of the Visitor Centers or the Circle K in West
Sedona.
This one is OK for older children and sure-footed animals - may
be too steep at the end for very small children, though they could
do the first part of it easily. Watch out for snakes and other
critters during hot weather! I have noticed that the perfect
cache-disguise is also an excellent place for varmints! Have fun,
enjoy the views, don’t forget your camera & drinking water, and
good luck findin' that ol' varmint, Tangled Ted!!
