Geocache Description:

Spring is here and we're out hiking and riding this trail again. We thought it would be nice to hide a few caches and add to the series already located along this historic railway.

We’ve added a parking coordinate for the Warfield end of the Trail. The other apporach to this cache would be from the trailhead in Rossland just off Gelesz Road.

Please come prepared for the outdoors! Though this trail seems close to civilization, you are sort of “out there”. It takes us about 1.5 – 2 hours to hike from Rossland to Warfield – quicker on skis, and even quicker on a bike.

Please resort to the hints if needed as tree cover and narrow valleys may impact GPSr accuracy.

The quickest and easiest way to this one might be to find a flatter route up and around.

Below the rail trail here is a neat rock outcropping overlooking a bit of a canyon on Trail Creek - but be careful - it's a steep scramble down to the rocks.
