Santa Fe Trail Nano is placed along a great scenic trail that runs from Palmer Lake to Colorado Springs.
Please enjoy not only the cache but take some time to enjoy the trail and other nearby caches.
You will probably need an extraction tool for the log.
The New Santa Fe Regional Trail provides a scenic journey along the front range of the mountains, from Palmer Lake Recreation area in northern El Paso County through the U.S. Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs. The trail follows a portion of the abandoned Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe railroad line, which, heading north to south drops 1,200 feet in elevation.
The trail is popular among hikers, cyclists, equestrians and families out for a stroll. Along the way you'll find interpretive signs, wildlife and interesting geological features, not to mention incredible views—in particular Pikes Peak.
The trail passes through the town of Monument, where you'll find restaurants and some shops, as well as through the Air Force Academy, so don't be surprised to see jets overhead.
At the southern end of the trail at Woodmen Road, the New Santa Fe Regional Trail becomes the Pikes Peak Greenway Trail.
This is a tough hide and may take some time. Please replace as found. If you have any troubles feel free to contact me.
