This Virtual Cache is part of a limited release of Virtuals created between August 24, 2017 and August 24, 2018. Only 4,000 cache owners were given the opportunity to hide a Virtual Cache. Learn more about Virtual Rewards on the Geocaching Blog.
Note that access to parking at Maroon Lake is restricted during the summer months. During restricted hours, if you don't arrive before 8:00AM or after 5:00PM, you will have to ride a shuttle bus to the lake. And, the road may be closed after heavy snow, so plan ahead.
