Geocache Description:

OK, so it's NOT a mountain.  Mt. Tesco is a beautiful little hill named by us after a dead fish who was F's friend, who was named after a British supermarket chain, which was named after... well, never mind!  This hill is steep but short, and gives you a really beautiful view of Boulder Mountain.  And the Russian John Warm Springs are very nearby, with their own geocache.  


Take the turn from Highway 75 to either Anderson Creek or the Warm Springs, park at the base of the hill and it's just a vigorous but only ten minute-long climb to the top of the hill (F, who is 12, made the climb - but do note that the last section involves a scramble over rocks).  The cache is a medium size plastic peanut jar that contains some small trinkets for exchange.  The cache's hiding place is a bit near a drop, so be careful!
