This cache is placed in honor of our grandson Jax, who turned 4 years old 3 months before this cache was hidden. Jax adds much zest to our lives with his energy and smiles. Similar to his brother Willie, he enjoys hunting for geocaches–they enthusiastically run along together as their iPhone guides them to their next hidden treasure. Jax loves toys that have wheels–cars, trucks, jeeps, fire engines, farm and construction machinery, semi tractor-trailers, airplanes, trains, etc. To our minds, toys or miniatures of this nature were specifically created to join the collection of “Jax’s Jalopies”. Each addition to the collection receives lots of use and affection!!
JAX AT 4 YEARS OLD
The swag/tradeables theme for Jax’s Cache obviously involves items that would fit the Jax’s Jalopies orientation. Please try to trade or supplement with similar items, so Jax can enjoy your contributions when he checks the contents each time he visits us from Castle Rock!
The cache is hidden on Falcon Ridge, where we live. We manage the property as an active farm, as well as for wildlife habitat. The entire tract is permanently protected through two Conservation Easements that require you to reach the cache location by walking along our farm roads and across grassy fields–that is, you cannot drive directly to the cache site.
You have our permission to come onto the property to locate the cache. From Colorado Highway 1 drive west up Falcon View Drive and park in front of the open (or closed) green gate at the coordinates given below for Parking. For purposes of the sign near the highway, you are our “Guest”. From parking, walk west along the tree-shaded farm road a short distance to a metal barn. Turn left just before this building and walk south across fields to the cache location. No smoking is allowed on Falcon Ridge, per common sense and per stipulations of the Conservation Easements. Access is restricted to daylight hours. Enjoy your time at this special place, and watch for the many birds and deer that frequent these habitats! Do NOT attempt to approach the cache from the south or west. Such approaches would result in trespass across neighbors’ properties.
