Geocache Description:

This is an easy kid friendly cache. I placed this cache while on vacation in Cloudcroft NM. I found that there were no caches in this area and decided to do something about that while visiting my parents on vacation. Yes the cache will be maintained by my parents, and no I did not just drop it and go!

If you have never heard of Cloudcroft or have never had a reason to go up the mountain well now ya do! It is a beautiful Village, Population 750 with an elevation of 9400ft. It is worth the drive up just to cool off and visit the forest (if open). During the summer months it can get real dry, and the forest folks have to do what they can to protect there National Forests. During the winter the cache WILL be under snow, so if ya feel like a bit of a challenge give a try then. While your in Cloudcroft take advantage of the area, and check out Downtown and the near by historic Mexican Canyon Trestle A&SM Railroad line - the Cloud Climbing Route).
